2-methylpropene(isobutene)
Carbon Fiber
Polypropylene
A volleyball is made out of polyisobutylene on the inside. Then rubber glue is used in between the rubber and the leather. The leather is man made.
Ethylene Vinyl Acetate
Volleyball shoes often have ethylene vinyl acetate or polyurethane midsoles sometimes companies use other things like air, plastics or gel. The components help relieve the shock from your feet when jumping all the time.
The net poles are made out of PVC plastic at the tops which is where the clear part is. Then the black part of the pole is made of either really heavy metal (aluminum) or carbon fiber poles which are a lot lighter.
Volleyball knee pads are made out of plastic foams, ethylene vinyl acetate(EVA) and a nylon band. There is multiple different types of knee pads so that may not be the same for all of them.
The indoor volleyball nets are made out of nylon polyester or polypropylene mesh and latex.
With volleyball you have so many different components between the floors, net set up and uniforms. A lot of it is made out of plastic components, it is one of the main elements in volleyball equipment.
