Fabrication of dual-coated graphene oxide nanosheets by polypyrrole and poly(ionic liquid) and their enhanced electrorheological responses

초록

A two-dimensional composite material, poly(ionic liquid)-modified graphene oxide/polypyrrole (GO/PPy/PIL) multilayered nanosheets, was fabricated and applied as a new electrorheological (ER) material. The morphological differences between the single- and dual-coated nanosheets were confirmed using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Rheological properties measured using a rotational rheometer indicated that the GO/PPy/PIL composite nanosheets exhibited relatively high ER effect under a certain electric field strength than the GO/PPy nanosheets because of the universal PIL second coating. The dual-coated nanosheets also showed a higher applicable electric field strength due to the semiconductive properties of the thick PIL layer.
