Office machines and personal computers form a support network for the business world. Within these machines, countless fine rubber parts that we have come to unconsciously trust make important functions such as conveyance and image formation possible. This is in part due to the knowhow of SRI's Engineers, with their exhaustive knowledge of rubber's mechanical strength, its low dependence on temperature, and unique physical properties such as conductivity, and their excellent hypothetical models. And more than anything else, the story of fine rubber is based on the creativity and dedication involved in bringing it to the world. The functions of micro-technology are active in countless fine rubber products, and our fine tuning of this technology continues to ensure that the expectations for newer, better rubber parts will become a reality.
