▎ 摘　　要

Functionalized graphene nanoplatelets (f-GNS) were modified with (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MPTMS) to enhance their compatibility with the polyurethane coating matrix. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, AFM, Raman and XRD showed that the MPTMS was successfully attached onto the surface of the graphene nanoplatelets. Functionalized graphene/waterborne polyurethane acrylate (f-GNS/WPUA) nanocomposites were fabricated by UV-curing technology. The SEM and TEM images indicated that f-GNS could be well dispersed in the polymer matrix and improved the interfacial adhesion. With the incorporation of 1 wt% f-GNS, the thermal decomposition temperature of the composites was increased by 25 degrees C. Meanwhile, the conductivity, hydrophobicity and tensile strength were increased. When the load was further increased, the performance of the composites showed varying degrees of reduction. However, the dielectric loss tangent (tan ) could be maintained at 0.08 or less and the electromagnetic shielding factor of the composites reached from 5 to 36 dB, showing a good electromagnetic shielding effect at a high content (2.5 wt% f-GNS). It was considered that f-GNS could disperse in the waterborne polyurethane well and crosslink with the polyurethane. (c) 2016 Society of Chemical Industry
