Preparation of Reduced Graphene Oxide/Chitosan Composite Films with Reinforced Mechanical Strength

摘要

Reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/chitosan composite films were fabricated by a solvent casting method and cross-linked using genipin.Their properties were characterized by scanning electron microscopy,X-ray powder diffraction,Raman spectroscopy,and UV-Vis spectroscopy.When rGO was added the tensile strength and membrane rigidity of the films increased,but their swelling ability in water decreased.
