Malaysian researcher develops rubber tie
I love this story - what a genius!
The Professor will definitely buy one.....
"A Malaysian university researcher has developed a rubber tie that does not require ironing and is not easy to be stained, local media said in Kuala Lumpur Sunday.
The tie made from rubber looks like a conventional fabric tie and is smart, elegant and of quality, said Prof. Nasir Zainal Arif, head of the Material Lab of the Industrial University of Selangor who developed the product.
He said that the tie is washable and fashionable with various colors, and does not crumple. It is made with only 100 and 150 grams of synthetic rubber.
It is "safe", compared with the conventional tie, because the wearer will not choke when he pulls it hard, he added.
The lab currently can make about 100 pieces of man-made ties of this kind, but can produce about 300 pieces if a machine is used."
