Non-covalent polymeric wrapping of IGEPAL C0890 for graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs-C0890) filled NR/EPDM rubber blend nanocomposites

Abstract. Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) surface modification was performed by using a simplified dual-action of ultrasonication and high speed mechanical shearing. This approach induced a non-covalent polymeric wrapping interaction between GNPs surfaces with IGEPALC0890 (ethoxylated nonyl phenol...
