Two kinds of thiol ionic liquids (ILs), 1-methylimidazolium mercaptopropionate (MimMP) and bis (1-methylimidazolium) mercaptosuccinate (BMimMS), were investigated as novel interfacial modifiers for styrene butadiene rubber/halloysite nanotubes (SBR/HNTs) composites. According to model compounds, it was found that their affinities toward HNTs were originated from hydrogen bonding and that they could be grafted onto SBR chains via thiol-ene reactions. The ILs addition could promote vulcanization and effectively facilitate HNTs dispersion in rubber matrix. The interfacial interaction, quantitatively evaluated by a proposed equation based on rubber elasticity and reinforcement theory, was consistently increased. Mechanical properties of SBR/HNTs vulcanizates were largely improved and better than those of the 3-mercaptopropyl trimethoxysilane modified system. The BMimMS's efficiency on modifying SBR/HNTs vulcanizates was higher than the other for its Gemini structure. Significantly mechanical improvements and lowered mechanical loss in the range of 50-80 °C were correlated to the improved HNTs dispersion and strengthened interfacial interactions.
