Enhancing the Adhesion of Graphene to Polymer Substrates by Controlled Defect Formation
George Anagnostopoulos, Labrini Sygellou, George Paterakis +3
The mechanical integrity of composite materials depends primarily on the interface strength and the defect density of the reinforcement which is the provider of enhanced strength a…
Molecular Modelling Combined with Advanced Chemistry for the Rational Design of Efficient Graphene Dispersing Agents
Konstantinia D. Papadimitriou, Emmanuel N. Skountzos, Sandra S. Gkermpoura +4
Pyrene-functional PMMAs were prepared via ATRP-controlled polymerization and click reaction, as efficient dispersing agents for the exfoliation of few-layered graphene sheets (GS)…
Stress Transfer Mechanisms at the Submicron Level for Graphene/Polymer Systems
George Anagnostopoulos, Charalampos Androulidakis, Emmanuel N. Koukaras +5
The stress transfer mechanism from a polymer substrate to a nano-inclusion, such as a graphene flake, is of extreme interest for the production of effective nanocomposites. Previou…
