Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were silylated successfully with several organosilanes.
•
The silylation mechanism proceeded through reaction of alkoxy moieties from organosilane.
•
Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane grafted into HNTs with the highest efficiency.
•
Aminosilanes showed polymerisation side-reaction via NH2-silicon oligomerization as a parallel functionalisation pathway.
