Abstract
Ethylene vinyl acetate/graphene oxide (EVA/GO) nanocomposite films were prepared via solution casting method. The morphological studies investigated using SEM and XRD methods and the results confirmed the formation of likely exfoliation structures and good interaction between matrix and fillers. The results of permeability measurements showed that films have good resistance against oxygen. Mechanical measurements revealed that Young’s modulus and tensile strength of EVA have improved with introducing GO because of proper dispersion of GO into matrix and good interaction between them; however, elongation at break decreased due to formation of strong and rigid polymer/filler network preventing to elongate polymer chains.
