Single-step exfoliation and functionalization of few-layers black phosphorus and its application for polymer composites
arXiv:2002.09412 · doi:10.1016/j.flatc.2019.100131
Abstract
We demonstrate the large scale exfoliation of bulk black phosphorus into few-layers black phosphorus. We use wet-jet mill (WJM) as an industrially scalable exfoliation technique. In order to avoid the degradation by oxidation of the exfoliated flakes, the few-layers black phosphorus is protected by functionalisation (with 4-bromobenzene-diazonium tetrafluoroborate) during the exfoliation process. We used the exfoliated and functionalised flakes as fillers in a polymethyl methacrylate matrix to test the mechanical endurance, obtaining an improvement in the Young modulus of 106% compared to the bare polymer. These data support the development of black phosphorus materials as 2D-polymer fillers and performance-enhancers.
