Notes:
A method for measuring the internal energy change of elastomers under compression is demonstrated using a conventional thermomechanical analyzer. The method is rapid and convenient and has a major advantage in that only a very small sample is required. Results are reported for natural rubber cured with two different crosslinking agents. The results are compared with previous work on similar materials in tension and torsion.
