The specific volume of natural rubber was measured at four values of temperature and six values of pressure. Is there any evidence that volume is not an additive relation with temperature and pressure?

Usage

Rubber

Format

a 4 x 6 matrix, where the cell values are the specific volume (in cubic centimeters per gram) of peroxide-cured rubber. The row and column variables are:

  • Temperature, in degrees Celcuis

  • Pressure, in kg / cm^2 above atmospheric pressure.
