Problems solved by technology

[0005] The covalently modified graphene is connected to the polymer in a covalent bond, which has a strong force, but the formation of the covalent bond makes the graphene surface sp 2 Hybridized carbon becomes sp 3 Hybridization, which destroys the original electronic structure of graphene, will weaken the transmission of electrons or phonons on the surface of graphene, limiting the application of modified graphene
Although the non-covalent bonding method preserves the electronic structure of carbon on the surface of graphene to the greatest extent, graphene and polymers are combined by intermolecular forces such as hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, ionic bonds, and π-π interactions. The force is easily destroyed when the external conditions are changed, so the load transfer efficiency of the graphene sheet should be low in theory, and the structure of the composite material formed is extremely unstable.

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel method for modifying graphene with polymer. By introducing polydopamine and combining covalent modification with non-covalent modification, the method increases the stability of the modified product structure under the premise of ensuring the integrity of the graphene structure. Firstly, by utilizing the strong adhesion of dopamine, the dopamine is self-polymerized to form a film on the surface of a graphene sheet, moreover, 2-Bromo-2-methylpropionyl bromide (BiBB) as common initiator for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is grafted on the dopamine by amidation, at the same time, graphene oxide (GO) is partially reduced by the dopamine (DA), and thereby graphene macroinitiator RGO@PDA-Br is obtained. Polymeric monomer is then added, so that the ATRP of the polymeric monomer is initiated on the surface of the graphene, and thereby a polymer-modified graphene material is obtained. By controlling conditions such as monomer concentration and reaction time, the novel method can obtain modified graphene materials with different densities and chain lengths of polymer grafted on the surfaces, meeting the characteristics of controllable / living ATRP. In addition, the feasibility and universality of the novel method for modifying graphene with polymer put forward by the invention are applicable to various monomers suitable for ATRP.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of surface modification and dispersion of graphene, in particular to a method for modifying graphene by grafting polymer chains on the surface of graphene through "grafting from". Background technique [0002] Before the discovery of graphene, the superior properties of polymer-carbon-based material composites have led to extensive research on such composite materials, especially carbon nanotube-polymer composites. As a new member of the carbon family, graphene can also be used as an assembly material to compound with polymers. However, on the road to the application of graphene-based composite materials, an important problem is faced, that is, how to improve its compatibility with solvents and polymer matrices. In order to solve this problem, the most effective method is to functionalize graphene with polymers, and the functionalization methods can be divided into two types according to their combination methods: no...
