In this paper, hybrid filler systems, based on either sp2 carbon allotropes such as carbon black and carbon nanotubes, or on inorganic oxides and hydroxides, such as silica and organoclay, are for the first time comparatively investigated. It is shown that, in isoprene rubber as the matrix, nano- and nano-structured fillers form hybrid filler networks. The effect of such hybrid filler systems on the mechanical reinforcement strongly depends on the nanofiller content.

Abstract
In this paper, hybrid filler systems, based on either sp2 carbon allotropes such as carbon black and carbon nanotubes, or on inorganic oxides and hydroxides, such as silica and organoclay, are for the first time comparatively investigated. It is shown that, in isoprene rubber as the matrix, nano- and nano-structured fillers form hybrid filler networks. The effect of such hybrid filler systems on the mechanical reinforcement strongly depends on the nanofiller content.File in questo prodotto:
