Abstract:Nanocomposite films of polybutylene succinate (PBS)/graphene nanoplatelets (GnP) with a GnP content ranging from 0 to 1.35 wt.% were prepared by melt processing. The morphology of both the neat PBS and PBS/GnP nanocomposites were investigated and revealed no significant impact of GnP on the crystalline microstructure. Moisture sorption at 10 °C, 25 °C, and 40 °C were analyzed and modeled using the Guggenheim, Andersen, and De Boer (GAB) equation and Zimm-Lundberg theory, allowing for a phenomenological analysi… Show more
“…At high water activity, the decrease of diffusion coefficient could be attributed to the water clustering phenomenon. 47,48 Considering the uncertainty, the introduction of llers, whatever the nature did not modify diffusion of water molecules.…”
Nanosheets of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) modified with hyperbranched polyester (PES) were infused in polycaprolactone. The nanocomposite films showed increase in permeability, gas diffusivity beside noticeable antimicrobial properties.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
