▎ 摘　　要

A series of alicyclic polyimide/graphene oxide(PI/GO) nanocomposites were successfully prepared by in situ polymerization of 1,4-bis(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy) benzene(6FAPB) and 1,2,3,4-cyclobutanetetracarboxylic dianhydride(CBDA) as well as GO, followed by thermal imidization. The effect of GO on the thermal stability, optical properties, mechanical properties, water absorption and water surface contact angle of the PI-based nanocomposites was investigated. The optical properties of the pure alicyclic PI and corresponding PI-based nanocomposite films showed that the addition of GO reduced the transparency of PI films in the range of 200-800 nm obviously. With the increase of GO loading, the mechanical and thermal properties of alicyclic PI-based nanocomposites were enhanced. For the PI- 1.0% GO nanocomposite films, the tensile strength was increased from 96 MPa (pure PI) to 109 MPa, and the Young's modulus was improved from 2.41 GPa (pure PI) to 3.83 GPa. The 10 wt% decomposition temperature for PI-1.0% GO nanocomposite films was increased from 464 (pure PI) to 481 degrees C, while the glass transition temperature (T-g) of PI/GO was slightly increased. In addition, the water surface contact angle of PI/GO enhanced from 71 degrees to 82.5 degrees, and the water uptake of PI/GO decreased from 2.58% to 1.48% with increasing the GO loadings. The uniform dispersion of GO in PI matrix was proved, and the pure PI and PI/GO nanocomposite films were amorphous. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
