Effect of addition graphene to ethylene vinyl acetate and low-density polyethylene

Graphene (Gr) distribution in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) considerably increased thermal stability and mechanical properties of LDPE/Gr or EVA/Gr composites. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and strength testing machine were used to study mechanical properties....
