Introduction Innovations in technology made possible the creation of the bouncing ball, creditable to the chemist Norman Stingley. This bouncing ball originated from the concepts and shape of the regular toy ball. [1]. Balls have been in the industry for ages, as it needs chemical processes to be produced. As a result of innovation and optimization of processes the bouncing ball was invented using rubber at first, but produced by polymerization and use of plastics in the present. [2]…
