Volleyball Object Project!

The game of volleyball is a fun way to exercise and develop many athletic skills. It helps you develop eye hand coordination and fast reflexes. It can be played indoors and outdoors, including on sand. The game is played with a volleyball,which is a soft light ball that is easy to hit and bump. While playing the game of volleyball, you need a ball that’s not too heavy or hard (like a basketball or football) which makes it easier to play the game.The volleyball helps fulfill the need to have fun and enjoy the sport of volleyball without hurting yourself or others. There are two major materials that are used to make a volleyball.The most significant one is faux or synthetic leather, most volleyballs are made out of this. It offers a good grip but isn’t too heavy or rough, such as a basketball. Many people find real leather ethically wrong so they choose synthetic leather. Synthetic leather is also a lot cheaper and easier to manufacture.
The second and most important component is the rubber bladder, this is made out of polyisobutylene(C4H8)n, the same material as a standard bike inner tube. The rubber bladder is used to give the volleyball a slight bounce but isn’t too heavy. Volleyballs also have a small textured piece of cloth that is attached
It’s made from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). This material was made in 1872 by German chemist Eugen Baumann on accident. Polyvinyl Chloride is made with Chlorine (Cl) and ethylene. When these two are combined ( at extremely high temperatures) they create vinyl chloride monomer. The vinyl chloride monomer can then be polymerized to make polyvinyl chloride. Polyvinyl Chloride is then turned into what we call “synthetic leather”. Chlorine is found in the ocean water, as a part of sodium chloride (NaCl). It’s also found in the earth’s crust. Interestingly, chlorine is poisonous and sometimes fatal, to humans so it is not naturally in the
