A review on synthesis and properties of polymer functionalized graphene

Open access

Abstract

This review highlights the functionalization chemistry of graphene with polymers by both covalent and non-covalent approaches. Due to the strong cohesive interactions graphene platelets agglomerate, causing difficulty to attain its optimum properties. The covalent functionalization is illuminated both from ‘grafting to’ and ‘grafting from’ techniques discussing the merits and demerits of the processes. The controlled free radical polymerization techniques used for this purpose e.g. ATRP, SET–LRP and RAFT etc. are discussed along with the conventional free radical polymerization. We have also noted the various approaches used in non-covalent functionalization e.g. π–π, H-bonding and hydrophobic interactions. These functionalized graphenes show good and stable dispersion facilitating composite formation with commodity plastics enhancing it's mechanical, thermal and conductivity properties. The optoelectronic properties of these functionalized graphene are interesting to fabricate sensors, photovoltaics, supercapacitors etc. A short account of the properties of these modified graphenes is also embodied with an emphasis on different area where future developments are expected.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
