Graphite nanoplatelets are comprised of single and few-layer graphene mixed with thicker graphite. Graphene is one of the most promising materials for many applications. It can be used in a variety of applications for instance as a reinforcement material for a polymer. However, to obtain a combination of desirable mechanical, electrical, thermal, and barrier properties in the nanocomposite. Graphene is also used as a component in energy storage, fuel cells, solar cells, sensors, and batteries.
Graphite Nanoplatelets: Graphene combines diverse and unique physical properties. It is an ideal building block for miniaturized next-generation devices, with applications in fields like photonics, opto-electronics, protective coatings, gas barrier films, and advanced nanocomposites.
Graphite nanoplatelets manifests exciting properties such as lightweight, high aspect ratio, electrical and mechanical toughness, low cost, thermal conductivity, and planar structure. These are cheaper than carbon nanofibers and nanotubes. In addition, GnPs’ electrical conductivity is orders of magnitude higher than graphene oxides.
Graphite nanoplatelets-based materials show increased tribology, mechanical, biomedical, gas barrier, flame retardant, and heat conduction properties. Furthermore, GnPs can transform plastic into an electrical conductor, converting it into a conformable material for electronics. Finally, GnPs showed good potential for enhancing the thermal conductivity of polymer matrixes, making them suitable as thermal interface materials.
