Vulcanite is a rare copper telluride mineral.

Innumerable tubes of glass, metal and a kind of vulcanite conveyed blood and chemicals over the whole system.

The substance on whose expansion the working of the instrument depends is a strip of some material extremely sensitive to heat, such as vulcanite.

Mouthpieces are made of vulcanite or lucite.

The M9-P also replaces the body covering with vulcanite, as used on earlier M cameras.

The M5 is covered in vulcanite, which can become brittle with age, and is subject to peeling and cracking.

Vulcanite, vulcanized natural or synthetic rubber, thus not a mineral due to organic composition, lack of crystal structure, and not naturally occurring.

A vulcanite or other strip is easily affected by differences of temperature, expanding and contracting by reason of the minutest changes.

An opportunity to view provisions made for toothless conscripts - a hard rubber solution (vulcanite) was moulded to the gums and porcelain teeth attached.
