High-performance polystyrene/graphene-based nanocomposites with excellent anti-corrosion properties

Abstract

This paper presents the first successful application of vinyl polymer/graphene-based nanocomposites in corrosion protection. Well-dispersed polystyrene (PS)/modified-GO nanocomposites were successfully prepared using in situ miniemulsion polymerisation. The as-prepared nanocomposites exhibit superior anti-corrosion properties compared with pure PS, in which the corrosion protection efficiency increased from 37.90% to 99.53% with the incorporation of 2 wt% modified GO in the PS polymer matrix. The thermal stability and mechanical properties also greatly improved compared with pure PS. The incorporation of 2 wt% modified GO in the PS polymer matrix increased the thermal decomposition temperature (Td) from approximately 298 to 372 °C, and the storage modulus increased from 1808.76 to 2802.36 MPa. This paper attributes the substantially improved properties to the nearly complete exfoliation of the modified-GO dispersion, which greatly enhanced the modified-GO/PS interfacial bond strength and gas barrier properties.

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.
