▎ 摘　　要

Graphene oxides (GO) were exfoliated in N,N-dimethylformamide by simple sonication treatment of the as-prepared high quality graphite oxides. By high-speed mixing of the pristine poly(amic acid) (PAA) solution with graphene oxide suspension: PAA solutions containing uniformly dispersed GO can be obtained. Polyimide (PI) nanocomposite films with different loadings of functionalized graphene sheets (FGS) can be prepared by in situ partial reduction and imidization of the as prepared GO/PAA composites. Transmission electron microscopy observations showed that the FGS were well exfoliated and uniformly dispersed In the PI matrix. It Is Interesting to find that the FGS were highly aligned along the surface direction for the nanocomposite film with 2 wt % FGS. Tensile tests indicated that the mechanical properties of polyimide were significantly enhanced by the incorporation of FGS, due to the fine dispersion of high specific surface area of functionalized graphene nanosheets and the good adhesion and interlocking between the FGS and the matrix.
