Mechanical and electrical properties of self-healable rubber blends under influence of imidazole mixture and selective wetting of hybrid filler
Flexible rubber composites based on blends of bromobutyl rubber (BIIR)/epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) filled with a hybrid filler of layered double hydroxides (LDH)/carbon nanotubes (CNT) were prepared, which may be of interest for use in tires and inner liner.An imidazole mixture of butyl-imidazole and 1H-imidazole was proposed to achieve reversi
