Abstract

Nanocomposites were prepd. by melt blending poly(1,​4-​cis-​isoprene)​, carbon black (CB) and either an organically modified clay or carbon nanotubes. Continuous hybrid networks were revealed by electron microscopy. Hybrid filler systems led to composites initial moduli much higher than those calcd. through the sum of initial modulus of composites contg. either only CB or only the nanofiller. Synergistic effect between CB and the nanofiller is hypothesized.
