Abstract:
In this review we highlighted the importance of graphene and present an overview of applications of Polyaniline–graphene nanocomposites. Graphene and its derivatives are being studied in nearly every field of science and engineering. Recent progress has shown that the graphene-based materials can have a profound impact on electronic and optoelectronic devices, chemical sensors, nanocomposites and energy storage. The aim of this review article is to provide a comprehensive scientific progress of graphene to date and evaluate its future perspective. The reinforcement of graphene and GO in polymer matrices has shown very exciting results in improving electrical conductivity at a very low percolation threshold, increase in strength and elastic modulus, high thermal conductivity and stability, and reduced permeation of gas molecules. All of these results open a new avenue for developing high strength light weight structural polymer composites for innumerable applications.
Keywords: polyaniline; conducting polymers; carbon nanotubes; composites; graphene.
