▎ 摘  要

Highly flexible nanocomposite films of nanocrystalline cellulose acetate (NCCA) and graphene oxide (GO) were synthesized by combining NCCA and GO sheets in a well-controlled manner. By adjusting the GO content, various NCCA/GO nanocomposites with 0.3-1 wt% GO were obtained. Films of these nanocomposites were prepared using the solvent casting method. Microscopic and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements demonstrated that the GO nanosheets were uniformly dispersed in the NCCA matrix. Mechanical properties of the composite films were also studied. The best GO composition of the samples tested was 0.8 wt%, giving tensile strength of 157.49 MPa, which represents a 61.92 % enhancement compared with NCCA. On the other hand, the composite films showed improved barrier properties against water vapor. This simple process for preparation of NCCA/GO films is attractive for potential development of high-performance films for electrical and electrochemical applications.
