Enhanced Mechanical Properties of Multi-layer Graphene Filled Poly(vinyl chloride) Composite Films

Enhanced properties of polyvinyl chloride modified by graphene reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane

“…As mentioned above, graphene is a single‐atom‐thick two‐dimensional nano‐sized material with large specific surface area and high surface activity, which can be physically or chemically combined with plasticizer and the TPU/PVC matrix. In our work, the DOP addition was fixed; with an increment in graphene loading, more DOP was adsorbed onto graphene surfaces and less was left between PVC chains . As a result, more DOP was fixed, resulting in low plasticizer migration of the PTG‐ x matrix at high loading of graphene.…”

Mechanical, tribological and heat resistant properties of fluorinated multi-walled carbon nanotube/bismaleimide/cyanate resin nanocomposites

“…Recently, high-performance polymer composites have attracted extensive attention due to their broad application prospect [1][2][3][4][5] . To improve the properties (e.g., modulus and thermal stability) of polymer composites, a matrix with excellent properties is crucial [6] .…”

Preparation of a Crosslinked Chitosan Coated Calcium Sulfate Whisker and Its Reinforcement in Polyvinyl Chloride

“…Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has been used for years as an important general plastic due to its excellent corrosion and abrasion resistance, electrical insulation and low cost [1][2][3] . However, the application of pure PVC in engineering has been limited by its poor impact resistance [4] and thermal stability [5] .…”
