a rubberlike polymer of butadiene blended with other synthetics to replace natural rubber in tires
Word origin
[1930–35; poly- + butadiene]This word is first recorded in the period 1930–35. Other words that entered Englishat around the same time include: acoustic phonetics, hypercorrection, kickback, logical positivism, old school tiepoly- is a combining form with the meanings “much, many” and, in chemistry, “polymeric,”used in the formation of compound words. Other words that use the affix poly- include: polyandrous, polyculture, polyethylene
