In this study, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) modified montmorillonite (MMT)which is called as organoclay (OMMT) was mixed with natural rubber, and masterbatcheswere produced using the acid-free co-coagulation (AFCC) method in the presence of acombined gelling agent, a mixture of CTAB and sodium dodecyl sulfate. The OMMT wasfurther modified by grafting of bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide as to reducethe surface energy in silanated organoclay (OMMT-S). As expected, the nanocompositesprepared with OMMT-S compared to those with OMMT exhibited greater mechanicalproperties due to the development of rubber–clay interactions and due toproper dispersion of small clay layers in the rubber matrix combined with the gellingagent. The improvement of elongation at break, hardness and tear strength of thenanocomposites with OMMT/OMMT-S was an added advantage when the nanocomposites areprepared using the AFCC method without having any adverse effect from the combinedgelling agent.
