Abstract

Compounding carbon black (CB) and polycarbonate (PC) at 300 °C can trigger a nontrivial air expansion inside the polymer matrix, resulting in many cavity-wrapped particulates. When graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) are further added, graphene shows a unique capability in peeling the air sheath from the particulates, giving rise to nanocavities everywhere and a much improved toughness (100%).
