内容简介：

Graphene has recently been the subject of much interest internationally because it has unique electronic and optical properties, and therefore is being considered for applications in electronics,  electrochromic devices and transparent conducting electrodes. The thermal conductivity of graphene is very high, and therefore potential as thermal management materials. It is also one of the strongest materials known and is currently being explored for its possibility as a reinforcement in polymeric matrices to make super strong composite materials. However, in order to realize the full potential of this material, there needs to be a cultural change so that routes from the test tube to the industrial plant are considered. In order to achieve this challenge, an integrated research approach following graphene from its production to processing and applications has being carried out in Loughborough University. The being carried out research includes the following parts: fabrication of graphene and functionalized graphene, graphene-based hybrid materials for energy storage and graphene/polymer composites for aerospace, automotive, construction  and packing applications. Prof Mo Song will briefly introduce these developments in Loughborough University.
