Abstract

ABSTRACT A model combining with Flory-Huggins theory of isotropic mixing and Landau theory is developed to describe the effect of graphene nanoparticles on the isotropic to nematic phase transition. The temperature and concentration of graphene nanoparticles dependence on the orientational order parameter, transition temperature and thermodynamic quantities near the isotropic to nematic phase transition are discussed. The orientational order parameter, transition temperature and enthalpy near the isotropic to nematic phase transition increase with the increase of graphene nanoparticles.
