“…FLG's ability to slow down the diffusion of oxygen reduces the creation of polymer peroxy radicals, which are key intermediates in the oxidation reaction and consequently impedes the propagation step. In a recent study, Ferreira et al 43 investigated the effect of adding FLG on the oxygen permeability of a multilayer HDPE composite. They used FLG with a similar lateral size as in this study and found that the addition of just 0.5 wt% FLG resulted in an 18% reduction in the oxygen permeability of the composite material.…”

“…Nevertheless, due to a worsening dispersion within the composite, barrier and mechanical characteristics deteriorated as the graphene percentage rose. [245] 6 | ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES Many processes can be responsible for EC in polymer nanocomposites. However, the most crucial ones are ohmic conduction, which results from the direct contact of conductive nanofillers, and tunneling conduction, which happens when electrons can travel through a thin insulating barrier.…”

“…Concomitantly, graphene, a carbon-based material, is gaining attention as a prospective photostabilizer due to the presence of π bonds and two-dimensional (2D) geometry [8]. The chemical structure enables graphene to absorb light in the UV region, through π → π*transitions [22,23], while the 2D structure allows it to act as a physical barrier to small molecules [24][25][26]. Additionally, a recent study has confirmed that few-layer (6 to 10 layers) graphene (FLG) does not have the same adverse dermal, inhalation, and gene toxicity effects that are well-known for other nanocarbons [27].…”
