Abstract

An expt. to measure the mech. properties of four samples of RTV silicone
rubber is reported.  The test was conducted under conditions of small
strains and an elevated hydrostatic pressure component of stresses (0-4000
psi).  The results gave a Young's modulus in the range of 13,000 to 21,000
and a Poisson's ratio range of 0.48 to 0.49.  The Young's modulus values
were much higher than the usual tensile values; however, calcn. of bulk
modulus gave values within the accepted range.
