 The constant urge to boost the versatility of unsaturated polyester (UP) in the burgeoning area of automotive and aircraft industries has shifted the focus on developing high performance UP based nanocomposites with remarkable thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. The current work traverses through the innovative method to contrive functionalized graphene oxide (f-GO)/UP nanocomposites. Similarly, Graphene oxide, synthesized from graphite using modified Hummers’ method, manifests into f-GO (GO-MAH, GO-NH2, POSS-GO) via surface chemical functionalization. Different loadings of f-GO were assimilated within UP matrix through in-situ polymerization. The comprehensive properties of the nanocomposites enhance, despite addition of f-GO as low as 0.04 wt.%, which its... view more»
