主讲内容:Incorporation of nano carbon into polymers can create a range of composites that have been increasingly applied to wearable electronics, energy storage, light weight structures and tissue engineering. Despite these promising applications, fundamental understanding of the structure-property relationships at different material length scales in composites can be difficult, attributed mainly to the complicated interactions at the filler/ matrix interfaces. To this, we have fabricated and characterized the mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of nano carbon/polymer composites to tailor their properties. Some biomimetic approaches and advanced processes such as 3D printing have been adopted to achieve desired microstructures. Experimental investigation and numerical modelling are used to investigate the interfacial properties. The applications of nano carbon, polymer and their composites in energy storage and sensors will be discussed.
