Abstract
Nanocomposites of NBR with different types of clays were prepared and characterized in terms of their morphology by X-ray diffraction and mechanical properties. It was observed that the organo-modifier agent of the clays and the molar mass of rubber had a significant influence on the dispersion of the clay lamellae during mixing on a two-roll mill. The results suggest that this simple and quick method of mixing and compounding seems to be viable to obtain reinforced materials on the nanoscale.
