Abstract

Graphene Quantum Dots (GQDs) and epoxy have been combined into a nanocomposite and evaluated for their thermal and dynamic mechanical properties. Samples of varying GQD mass loading were first examined with SEM in several images. Thermal conductivity was estimated using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) with a step analysis technique and analysis program. Several dynamic mechanical properties were recorded using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) and displayed in their raw and analyzed formats. For more insight please see Infusion of graphene quantum dots to modulate thermal conductivity and dynamic mechanical properties of polymers [1].
