What is it about?

The effects of graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs) and graphene nanosheets (GNSs) on fracture toughness and tensile properties of epoxy resin have been studied.

Why is it important?

A new technique for synthesis of GPLs based on changing magnetic field is developed.

Perspectives

It was found that the GPLs have greater impact on both fracture toughness and tensile strength of nanocomposites compared with the GNSs.
