Sammanfattning

Graphene has emerged as a revolutionary material in engineering, owing to its exceptional properties including high surface area, outstanding mechanical strength, excellent electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. These attributes make graphene highly suitable for a wide range of applications across electronics, energy storage, biomedical devices, sensors and aerospace engineering. Graphene oxide (GO) which can be synthesized from natural graphite via chemical exfoliation, is a promising material for use as an anti-corrosive coating for metals and as a filler for development of polymer nanocomposites due to its low cost and ease of functionalization. Nitrogen and phosphorous doped graphene have shown enormous potential for energy storage applications. Both reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and GO have shown promising prospects in hydrogels systems designed for anticancer and antibacterial applications. This presentation will highlight research conducted by our group, focusing on diverse applications of graphene for modern engineering applications including GO-based anti-corrosive coatings, GO-based nanocomposites for load bearing applications, graphene nanoplatelet-based thermal interface materials, GO-based composites electrodes for supercapacitors and GO/rGO-based hydrogels for biomedical applications.
