The proposed equation is composed of a Langevin-statistics based term of Arruda and Boyce and a generalized strain i nvariant based term following from several tube theories. But for the very low strain region an excellent data rep resentation up to break is obtained for unfilled networks and also for dual networks. Comparison with data on fill er-reinforced networks gave promising results.
