Electrically Conductive 2D Material Coatings for Flexible & Stretchable Electronics: A Comparative Review of Graphenes & MXenes
Vicente Orts Mercadillo, Kai Chio Chan, Mario Caironi +4
There is growing interest in transitioning electronic components and circuitry from stiff and rigid substrates to more flexible and stretchable platforms, such as thin plastics, te…
Deformation and tearing of graphene-reinforced elastomer nanocomposites
Mufeng Liu, Jason H. Hui, Ian A. Kinloch +2
The resistance to failure through tearing is a crucial mechanical property for the application of different elastomers. In this work, graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) were introduced…
Strain Engineering in Monolayer WS2 and WS2 Nanocomposites
Fang Wang, Suhao Li, Mark A. Bissett +3
There has been a massive growth in the study of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) over the past decade, based upon their interesting and unusual electronic, optical and mecha…
Multifunctional Biocomposites based on Polyhydroxyalkanoate and Graphene/Carbon-Nanofiber Hybrids for Electrical and Thermal Applications
