The term "elastomers" is defined as substance in bale, crumb, powder, latex, and other crude forms which can 

be vulcanized or similarly processed into materials that can be stretched at 68° F. to at least twice their 

original length and, after having been stretched and the stress removed, will return with force to approximately 

their original length. 

Includes oil content of oil-extended elastomers. 

'Calculated from unrounded figures. 

Includes acrylic ester, butyl, chloroprene, epichlorohydrin, fluorinated, isobutylene, lsoprenes, polysulfide, 

certain solution elastomers, chlorinated rubber, chlorosulfonated polyethylene, thermoplastic rubber, silicone 

type (sales only), styrene-butadiene-vinylpyridlne type (sales only), and miscellaneous elastomers. 

Note.—Data on production and sales of urethane elastomers are now reported in the section 

Materials" with urethane plastics and polyols.
