A high throughput method for preparation of highly conductive functionalized graphene and conductive polymer nanocomposites

Abstract

Highly conductive graphene sheets were prepared by coating graphene oxide with polydopamine (PDA) followed by reduction with hydrazine. Polyacrylonitrile/graphene nanocomposites prepared via solution blending exhibit high electrical conductivities at very low graphene loadings owing to the good exfoliation and relatively planar conformation of the PDA-coated graphene in the polymer matrix.
