Abstract:Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs), an innovative material, were integrated into a silicone rubber (SR) matrix. This investigation aimed to assess the influence of varying HNTs concentrations on the curing behavior, mechanical properties, swelling resistance, and microstructural features of SR/HNTs nanocomposites. These nanocomposites were formulated by incorporating HNTs at different concentrations (0-10 phr) through a two-roll mill. The cure characteristics revealed an upsurge in maximum torque (MH) with escalating… Show more
