The melting point of rubber can vary depending on the type of rubber being measured. Natural rubber, also known as latex, has a melting point range of approximately 180-200 degrees Celsius (356-392 degrees Fahrenheit). Synthetic rubbers, such as neoprene and silicone, have melting points ranging from 150-250 degrees Celsius (302-482 degrees Fahrenheit).
It is important to note that rubber does not actually "melt" in the traditional sense like metals or plastics. Instead, it undergoes a process known as thermal degradation, where the polymer chains break down and the material becomes softer and more pliable. This can occur over a range of temperatures, rather than at a specific melting point.
Rubber is a viscoelastic material, meaning it has both viscous (liquid-like) and elastic (solid-like) properties. This unique combination of properties allows rubber to undergo significant changes in shape and form when subjected to heat, without actually melting.
