In this study, it is attempted to develop rubber nanocomposites having self-healing ability and robust mechanical properties via a melt blending of epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) with small amount of halloysite nanotube (HNT), and a subsequent curing of the nanocomposites using 3‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazole (ATA) as a crosslinker. Curing behavior of ENR/HNT/ATA compounds with varying compositions were examined by oscillating disc rheometer (ODR), and the morphology, mechanical properties and self-healing effects of the ATA-cured ENR/HNT nanocomposites were characterized by TEM, DMA, and room temperature tensile test, respectively. |
