Abstract

In this work, thermally reduced graphene (TRG) was produced by simultaneous thermal exfoliation and reduction of graphite oxide and characterized using x-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. TRG/polyethylene (PE) nanocomposites were prepared via solvent blending and cast-film method. The crystallization kinetics of the nanocomposites were investigated by varying TRG concentration and crystallization temperatures. The evolution of crystallization in PE with TRG concentration below and above the percolation threshold limits are reported here. A delayed crystallization was observed at low TRG concentration percolation limits whereas a faster nucleation was exhibited at high TRG concentration percolation threshold. Furthermore, the crystallization results are also compared with conventional PE/carbon black composites.
