DOI: 10.1016/j.eurpolymj.2017.09.047
Abstract: Abstract Incorporation of small quantities of graphene modified with polystyrene brushes into poly(styrene-b-ethylene-co-butylene-b-styrene) (SEBS) produces elastomeric conductive nanocomposites with enhanced electromechanical behaviour. Compared to graphene modified with polyethylene rubbery brushes, polystyrene-modified graphene distorts the hexagonal… read more here.
