nanocomposites fabricated by incorporation of exfoliated graphene nanoplatelets and their application for bipolar plates in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells
The focus of this research is to investigate the potential of using exfoliated graphene nanoplatelets, GNP, as the multifunctional reinforcement in fabricating polymer/GNP nanocomposites and then explore their prospective applications in bipolar plates for polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells. Firstly, high density polyethylene (HDPE)/GNP nanocomposites were fabricated using the conven...
متن کاملCured Poly(ethylene-g-maleic anhydride)/Graphene Nanocomposite: Properties and Characterization
Poly(ethylene-g-maleic anhydride) (PEMA)/graphene nanoplatelets (xGn) (PEMA-xGn) composites were prepared by melt dispersion in an internal shear mixer. By adding dicumyl peroxide (DCP), cured poly(ethylene-g-maleic anhydride) C-PEMA was also produced. Different amounts of xGn were introduced into the PEMA in range of 0.5–5 wt. %. The effects of the sequence of feeding additives into the mixer ...
متن کاملReprocessing of PLA/Graphene Nanoplatelets Nanocomposites
This work reports a study on the effect of multiple reprocessing on the properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) filled with graphene nanoplatelets (GnP) compared to the melt reprocessed neat polymeric matrix. In particular, morphological, X-Ray Diffraction and Micro-Raman analyses, intrinsic viscosity measurements, thermal, rheological and mechanical tests were carried out on materials reprocesse...
متن کاملPoly(lactic acid)/Poly(ethylene glycol) Polymer Nanocomposites: Effects of Graphene Nanoplatelets
Graphene nanoplatelets (xGnP) were investigated as a novel nano-reinforcement filler in poly(lactic acid)(PLA)/poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG) blends by the melt blending method. PLA was first plasticized by PEG in order to improve its flexibility and thereby overcome its problem of brittleness. Then, xGnP was incorporated into the PLA/PEG blend. The prepared nanocomposites exhibited a significant i...
متن کاملEnhanced electrical conductivity in graphene-filled polycarbonate nanocomposites by microcellular foaming with sc-CO2
Electrically conductive polycarbonate foams containing a low concentration of graphene nanoplatelets (0.5 wt.%) were produced with variable range of expansion ratio by applying a high pressure batch foaming process using sc-CO2. The structure of the foams was assessed by means of SEM, AFM and WAXS, and the electrical conductivity was measured in the foam growing direction. Results showed that e...
