Claims18
A unitary elastomer gel pen holder that includes a flexible, resilient, gel media having shape memory and being substantially solid and non-flowable at room temperature, unitary elastomer pen holder comprising:
- a quantity of elastomer gel formed to have a top, a bottom, and an outer periphery,
- a plurality of generally parallel hollow columns,
- said hollow columns each having a longitudinal axis,
- said hollow columns serving as receptacles to hold pens or other objects being placed in said hollow columns generally parallel to said longitudinal axis,
- said hollow columns each having a top and a bottom,
- said hollow columns having walls made from said elastomer gel, and
- said hollow column walls being flexible and stretchable.
A pen holder as recited in claim l wherein said elastomer gel comprises an elastomer and a plasticizing agent.
A unitary elastomer gel pen holder that includes a flexible, resilient, gel media having shape memory and being substantially solid and non-flowable at room temperature, unitary elastomer pen holder comprising:
- a quantity of elastomer gel formed to have a top, a bottom, and an outer periphery,
- said elastomeric gel including
- an elastomer,
- said elastomer being an A-B-A triblock copolymer,
