Research on carbon-based nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes, graphene and its derivatives, nanodiamonds, fullerenes, other nanosized allotropes, has experienced sharp exponential growth over recent years [...]

Two-dimensional BN/CN nanomaterials of various composition and morphology were synthesized in N2eH2 plasma by plasma-enhanced hot filament chemical vapor deposition, with B4C used as precursor. The results of field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometer, transmission electron microscopy, micro-Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy evidence that the hexagonal boron nitr...

As the market and related industry for wearable electronics dramatically expands, there are continuous and strong demands for flexible and stretchable devices to be seamlessly integrated with soft and curvilinear human skin or clothes. However, the mechanical mismatch between the rigid conventional electronics and the soft human body causes many problems. Therefore, various prospective nanomate...

Doping is an effective approach that allows for the intrinsic modification of the electrical and chemical properties of nanomaterials. Recently, a graphene and carbon nanotube hybrid structure (GNHS) has been reported, which extends the excellent properties of carbon-based materials to three dimensions. In this paper, we carried out a first-time investigation on the tensile properties of the hy...

This review explores impact and graphene-based nanocomposites on aerospace applications. The fabrication indispensable features graphene-derived have considered. Numerous polymers employed for systems such rei...

Electrospun one dimensional (1D) and two dimensional (2D) carbon based polymer nanocomposites are studied in order to determine the effect provided by the two differently structured nanofillers on crystallinity and thermo-mechanical properties of the nanofibres. The nanomaterials studied are pristine carbon nanotubes, oxidised carbon nanotubes, reduced graphene oxide and graphene oxide. Functio...

The effective synthesis and self-assembly of graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites are of key importance for a broad range of nanomaterial applications. In this work, a one-step chemical strategy is presented to synthesize stable GO-polymer Langmuir composite films by interfacial thiol-ene photopolymerization at room temperature, without use of any crosslinking agents and stabilizing agents. It is...
