Preparation and characterization of graphene/polymer nanocomposites with improved mechanical properties
conference contribution
posted on 2016-05-05, 13:56 authored by Mo Song, Jie Jin, Jiawei Zhao, Yasir Q. Gill, Xiao WangGraphene has recently been the subject of much interest internationally because it has unique mechanical properties. It is currently being explored for its possibility
as reinforcement in polymeric matrices to make super strong composite materials. However, in order to realize the full potential of this material, there needs to be a cultural change so that routes from the test tube to the industrial plant are considered. It is clear that the dispersion of graphene in polymer matrices is extremely
important. With good dispersion, some excellent properties of graphene can be transferred to the matrix. In the communication, we will report how graphene
reinforcing polymers can be realized.
