## Abstract The effect of the incorporation of a bentonite on the vulcanization kinetics of natural rubber was investigated by means of both cureโmeter testing and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) under dynamic and isothermal conditions. The vulcanization curves showed that the modified clay

## Abstract Rubber compounds based on natural rubber (NR) reinforced with octadecylamineโmodified bentonite have been prepared via a vulcanization process and characterized by several techniques. The silicate nanolayers are exfoliated and uniformly dispersed in the polymer chains. Monsanto measurem
## Abstract Elastomers show improved properties when reinforced with nanoclay at low filler loadings, but dispersion of the clay is difficult in nonโpolar polymers, such as ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM). In this work several compatibilization approaches were studied, including the additio
