Abstract:In this work, polyvinyl butyral (PVB) nanocomposites reinforced with 0.5 to 2.5 wt% of graphene oxide (GO) were synthesized via "in situ" polymerization. PVB was obtained by condensation of hydroxyl groups of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with butyraldehyde (BU) Thermogravimetric analyzes (TGA) showed the increase in the thermal conductivity of the nanocomposites compared to PVB. FTIR results showed the conversion of PVA to PVB, but no changes in the spectrum were observed for nanocomposites. Nuclear magnetic resona… Show more
