Immortal rubber bands ?
When that layer is reduced to be just one atom thick we get graphene.
Graphenes signature property is its durability which is said to be 200 times stronger than steel.
If the amount of graphene is too less, the rubber bands will not reach its max durability.
If the amount of graphene is too high, the bands may loose its elastic property.
Graphene bands might be able to fulfill many needs that the current rubber bands fail to satisfy.
They could also be fitted with RFID tags that can change color depending on temperature or time.
They could reject it at the store because its changed color based on temperature.
The extra strength and durability of these graphene bands would also benefit customers since they might never break.
Eventually, Alliance plans to put graphene into every rubber band that it produces.
