A criterion for the rupture of simple elastomers is postulated and its consequences examined. The criterion assumes that the sample will break when the rate of increase of tension due to further elongation is equal to the decrease due to bond rupture. The former is computed from the rate of strain and the form of the stress‐strain curve. An expression for the latter is found using reaction rate considerations. The resulting expression represent the experimental data on the rupture of polydimethylsiloxanes within the limits of experimental error. The free energy of activation for bond rupture obtained from the tensile data, by use of the theory, at one temperature is in approximate agreement with the activation energy obtained from stress relaxation measurements at several temperatures.
