▎ 摘　　要

Graphene has shown exceptional mechanical properties and multifunctional characteristics. The aim of this study is to explore the scope of graphene enhanced composites for industrial and engineering applications. G(1)raphene, an allotrope of carbon, has many exclusive properties and it is the strongest material ever tested. Glass fibre reinforced composites were fabricated with graphene fractions ranging from 2% to 10% using solvent assisted dispersion and ultrasonic mixing. The fabricated composites were submitted to tensile, impact and flexural/three point bending tests after curing. Micro structural features and morphology of epoxy nanocomposites were investigated using Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). This investigation reveals that due to incorporation of graphene nano fillers in epoxy composites to some extent increases tensile modulus and mechanical properties. It also shows that Graphene/epoxy composites reinforced with glass fibreas giving higher mechanical performance than conventional glass fibre reinforced epoxy composites. The driving force behind the fabrication of graphene enhanced nano composites is to achieve high functional mechanical properties for high end industrial applications.
