2. Rubber elasticity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_elasticity

   A rubber band is a single molecule, as is a latex glove. The sections of polyisoprene between two adjacent cross-links are called network chains and can contain up to several hundred isoprene units. In natural rubber, each cross-link produces a network node with four chains emanating from it.
