Abstract: | Graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) was incorporated into poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and PVDF/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blend to achieve binary and ternary nanocomposites. GNP was more randomly dispersed in binary composites compared with ternary composites. GNP exhibited higher nucleation efficiency for PVDF crystallization in ternary composites than in binary composites. GNP addition induced PVDF crystals with higher stability; however, PMMA imparted opposite effect. The binary composite exhibited lower thermal expansion value than PVDF; the value further declined (up to 28.5% drop) in the ternary composites. The storage modulus of binary and ternary composites increased to 23.1% and 53.9% (at 25 °C), respectively, compared with PVDF. Electrical percolation threshold between 1 phr and 2 phr GNP loading was identified for the two composite systems; the ternary composites exhibited lower electrical resistivity at identical GNP loadings. Rheological data confirmed that the formation of GNP (pseudo)network structure was assisted in the ternary system. |
