This disclosure is directed to nano composite compositions that are suitable for air bladders, inner tubes, inner liners and other desirable air-retention articles. In particular, this disclosure is directed to compositions that include the nano composite, the nano composite made in such that its air-retention properties are much improved over what is known, while maintaining desirable elasticity and processability. In a particular aspect, an air-retention article such as an inner liner if formed by first contacting a desirable elastomer, especially a functionalized poly(isobutylene-co-p-methylstyrene) elastomer, with one or more layered fillers such as a clay described further below, and also contacting one or more processing aids, and one or more solvents to form an nano composite composition. The nano composite composition is then precipitated to form the solid nano composite composition which can be dried and further blended with other suitable ingredients such as, for example, curative agents, thus forming an inner liner suitable for a tire or other article.
