I'm looking at getting a new rubber sheet for my ping pong paddle (yeah, I know, what kind of nerd owns his own paddle? And buys upgrades for it? Well, I do.)

So I was looking for info about the "Hammond Pro α" by Nittaku. I found their website, and it includes this super-informative graphic (which explains, um, something... in Japanese...), and this awesome product info.

This sure helped me make up my mind! No more questions from me! I can't stand the "durability to become bad", and want to ensure that "seat and sponge invent big repulsive force".

"Rubber and medicine are combined at the time of rubber generation"... what?! Rubber and medicine?? This shit sounds like magic!

A rubber seat was 20-30% in the past rebellion became so good that the ratio of the rubber substitute to natural rubber became high but for the durability to become bad. A seat of a HAMMONDseries is to set rubber substitute to about 2 times of 60% while maintaining the durability, and high repulsive force is being shown. Highly precise rubber generation will be possible by nanocomposite technology, and Hammond-Xis also combining rubber substitute 70% in a sponge. (In the past, for rubber substitute 0, HAMMONDand professional ?, 50%) these seat and sponge invent big repulsive force. (More energy losses will be small.) if the batted ball process is expressed, flexibility of the natural rubber (catches a ball tightly and makes) them rip, and the ball repulsive force of rubber substitute caught is driven to the batted ball direction, said, it'll be (figure 1 referring).

* Nanocomposite technology (figure 2 referring)
A raw material of rubber and medicine are combined at the time of rubber generation. Perfect dispersion was fact possible which disperses difficult medicine to the nano level (1 n = 1/1,000,000 mm) in the past, and rubber generation which is high-quality and excellent in elasticity became possible by a more efficient chemical reaction.
