Journal ArticleDOI

Graphene-based polymer nanocomposites

TL;DR: A survey of the literature on polymer nanocomposites with graphene-based fillers including recent work using graphite nanoplatelet fillers is presented in this article, along with methods for dispersing these materials in various polymer matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tensile loading of ropes of single wall carbon nanotubes and their mechanical properties

TL;DR: The mechanical response of 15 single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) ropes under tensile load was measured and strain data were obtained and they broke at strain values of 5.3% or lower.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stable aqueous dispersions of graphitic nanoplatelets via the reduction of exfoliated graphite oxide in the presence of poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate)

TL;DR: In this article, stable aqueous dispersions of polymer-coated graphitic nanoplatelets can be prepared via an exfoliation/in-situ reduction of graphite oxide in the presence of poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate).
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and exfoliation of isocyanate-treated graphene oxide nanoplatelets

TL;DR: In this article, a number of functionalized graphite oxides were prepared by treatment of graphite oxide (GO) with organic isocyanates, which can then be exfoliated into functionalized graphene oxide nanoplatelets that can form a stable dispersion in polar aprotic solvents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploration of the active center structure of nitrogen-doped graphene-based catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction

TL;DR: In this article, two different ways to fabricate nitrogen-doped graphene (N-graphene) and demonstrate its use as a metal-free catalyst to study the catalytic active center for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR).
