Rubber band/graphene (RBG) nanocomposites are formed by infusing graphene nanosheet into a rubber band (RB) and subsequently evaporating the solvent. The RB was first pretreated by soaking in toluene solvent in a mild sonication for 3 h before the swollen RB was immersed in graphene dispersion for different time periods of 12 and 20 h. Employing this technique, graphene nanosheets will be attached in the RB matrix to increase the mechanical properties of these nanocomposites. The peaks shifting of RBG composites noted from Fourier‐transform infrared and Raman analyses due to the stress transfer that indicates reinforcement of the graphene nanosheet. Also, dynamic mechanical testing is most useful for studying the viscoelastic behavior of the nanocomposites, which exhibits increasing storage modulus in the following order, RB < RBG‐12h < RBG‐20h and higher shifting of tan δ peak temperature for RBG‐12h and RBG‐20h. The main factor is due to the introduction of graphene content in the RB matrix. The improvement of RB/graphene composite in terms of their mechanical, electrical, and structural properties demonstrated promising candidates for low heat build‐up materials, improved wear resistance and thermal stability, increase significant gas impermeability, and electricity conductivity.

橡胶带注入石墨烯纳米复合材料对形貌，光谱和动态力学性能的协同效应

橡胶带/石墨烯（RBG）纳米复合材料是通过将石墨烯纳米片注入橡胶带（RB）并随后蒸发溶剂而形成的。首先通过在温和的超声处理下将甲苯浸入甲苯溶剂中3小时来对RB进行预处理，然后将溶胀的RB浸入石墨烯分散体中12到20 h的不同时间。利用该技术，石墨烯纳米片将附着在RB基质中，以增加这些纳米复合材料的机械性能。傅里叶变换红外和拉曼分析表明，由于应力转移表明石墨烯纳米片的增强，RBG复合材料的峰移动。此外，动态力学测试对于研究纳米复合材料的粘弹性行为最有用，该复合材料的储能模量按以下顺序增加，RB <RBG-12h < RBG‐20h和RBG‐12h和RBG‐20h的tanδ峰值温度有较高的偏移。主要因素是由于在RB基体中引入了石墨烯含量。RB /石墨烯复合材料在机械，电气和结构性能方面的改进表明，它们有望成为低发热材料，改善的耐磨性和热稳定性，显着的不透气性和电导率的候选材料。
