Abstract
A novel ternary epoxidized natural rubber (ENR- 50) toughened polyamide 6/halloysite nanotubes (PA6/ HNTs) nanocomposites were successfully prepared by extrusion followed by injection molding. The HNTs revealed a favourable interaction with the PA6 matrix as seen by the improvement in mechanical properties and presence of anew FTIR vibrational peak. The ENR-50 showed an improvement of the impact strength up to 300% with a super tough characteristic at only 15 wt% ENR-50. The naturally occurring nanotubes proved to be a suitable candidate to replace other synthetic nanotubes.
