Abstract
The polypropylene/(recycled natural rubber gloves)/(halloysite nanotubes) (PP/rNRg/HNTs) composites were prepared by using an internal mixer. The effect of HNTs loading on processibility, tensile properties, thermal stability, and morphology of PP/rNRg/HNTs composites were investigated. The stabilization torque increased with HNTs loading. Two parts by weight per hundred parts of resin of HNTs‐filled PP/rNRg/HNTs composites shows the highest tensile strength. The scanning electron micrographs show good dispersion of HNTs and good filler‐matrix interaction, particularly at 2 parts by weight per hundred parts of resin of HNTs. The incorporation of HNTs also improved the thermal stability of PP/rNRg/HNTs composite. J. VINYL ADDIT. TECHNOL., 22:487–491, 2016. © 2015 Society of Plastics Engineers
