Graphite, Graphene, and Their Polymer Nanocomposites
Editat de Prithu Mukhopadhyay, Rakesh K. Guptaen Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 oct 2012
The focus then moves to graphene and its unique features, and techniques for its characterization. The chapters cover advances in electrochemical exfoliation of graphite, as well as exfoliation routes to produce graphene and graphite nanoplatelets for polymer composites. They also explore commercial use of graphene-based materials, such as emerging clean energy and pulse laser applications, and use as nanofillers in epoxy-based composites. The authors provide an overview of nanofillers and address two methods for GPNC preparation as well as specialized properties of GPNC. With its multidisciplinary approach, this book provides a broader scientific and engineering perspective necessary for meaningful advancements to take place.

Recenzii
“The book is very comprehensive … written by internationally known researchers. It covers fundamentally important aspects, starting from graphite, moving on to graphene, and then to their polymer nanocomposites. I find a nice balance between theoretical aspects and experimental studies. … The authors have done a great job in distilling their work for their respective chapters. This is a reference work that should find its place among its peers in a scientific library.”
—Dr. Vassilios Galiatsatos, Fellow SPE, Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research Dresden, Germany
“… relevant to real-world applications for graphene, graphene-like, and near graphene materials that are now reaching the marketplace. The [contents] follow a logical progression, from graphite-basics, to characterization of graphitic and graphene materials, lab and industrial synthesis, and include a wide range of applications-related chapters. Researchers, applications engineers, manufacturing chemists, polymer scientists, formulators, and other individuals involved in graphene materials will be enticed to read further.”

“Graphene and graphene-based materials are finding increasing applications in a variety of settings ranging from medical, biological, and energy related areas. Undoubtedly, it is one of the most promising materials of future. Therefore, the present handbook is timely and appropriate to provide a state of the art account spanning all aspects including production, characterisation and property-structure relationships … . Yet at the same time directing an interested reader to specialised research papers to dig deeper into specific aspects.
The editors have skillfully compiled virtually the complete spectrum of graphite, graphene, and their nanocomposites technology. … Each chapter has been written by a well-known individual possessing extensive firsthand experience combined with complete familiarity with the contemporary literature. This handbook has all the ingredients to become one of the most influential resources in this emerging field.”

“Graphene is the new wonder material and a premium carbon product. Researchers are still in the initial stages of discovering all its properties and potential applications. Indeed, there is significant research on simply finding convenient ways to synthesize graphene in reasonable quantities. This book brings together key players from all over the world, and these researchers present the state of the art in this convenient and easy-to-read edited volume. This book is a rendering of both the science and technology of graphene and its utilization in polymer nanocomposites. It is extremely well done … . The research into graphene has just begun, and this book has the potential to act as the guide for those contemplating their own journey into this emerging area of materials science and engineering.”
