Abstract
In the recent years, halloysite (Hal) nanotube has emerged as promising naturally occurring filler for the development of commercially viable advanced rubber composites. The present review is an attempt to present the relevant information from past and recent developments in Hal nanotube based natural and synthetic rubber composites. The potential of Hal nanotube as reinforcing filler in rubber composites is critically explored in terms of mechanical, dynamic mechanical, morphological and thermal properties. The homogeneous dispersion of Hal within the rubber matrix is the key parameter for the preparation of highly reinforced Hal nanotube filled rubber composites. The last section of the review will emphasize the major challenges regarding the practical application of Hal nanotube as reinforcing filler in rubber industry. This study will be the part of huge interest of modern rubber researchers regarding the progress of non-petroleum based sustainable rubber technology by the suitable application of clay science and technology.
