Preparation Of Graphene Oxide/Conducting Polymer Nanocomposites By Rf-Plasma Polymerization

Abstract

Over the last ten years, graphene has been found significant attention in both academic and industrial research due to its excellent properties include electrical conductivity, thermal stability, large surface area and mechanical strength 1. Graphene oxide, as a derivative of graphene, has been widely investigated material due to functional groups located on its basal and edge structure. On the other hand, conducting polymers are also know as synthetic metals have received a central importance in materials research due to their unique properties 2. The researchers have studied the composites of graphene oxide and conducting polymers. These composites have exhibited a synergic effect leading to significant enhancements in their properties, which are not observed in each component.
