“…The introduction of layered silicates modifi ed with organic cations (3-5 wt.%) leads to an improvement in the combination of properties of polymer composites such as their physicomechanical and dynamic properties, reduced gas permeability, increased thermal stability, resistance to solvents, etc. [2][3][4][5][6][7]. Taking into account that butadiene-acrylonitrile rubbers are used for the manufacture of mechanical goods (sleeves, hosing, tubing, conveyer belts) with improved barrier properties and thermal stability, it was of interest to study the effect of additions of modifi ed layered silicates on the properties of rubber compounds based on these elastomers.…”
