Abstract
Abstract An eraser based on polyvinyl chloride having particles of a crosslinked polymeric natural or synthetic rubber embedded in the polyvinyl chloride structure. Such erasers have high strength and good aging resistance. Additionally, conventional softeners in the eraser do not undergo significant migration and consequently, the eraser does not smudge. A process for manufacturing the eraser is also disclosed.
