It is well known that carbon black has superior reinforcement effects on physical properties of vulcanizates. Inorganic fillers, such as silica, kaolin clay, and calcium carbonate, exhibit similar effects on physical properties of vulcanizates by surface treatment with silane coupling agents and addition of modified polymers. The properties of inorganic fillers and its surface treatment for development of high-performance and high-functional vulcanizates are reviewed in this paper.
