Abstract

Graphene (GR) sheets were successfully prepared via solvent interface trapping. Characterization of GR was performed using Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and UV–Vis spectrometer. GR was trapped in gum acacia (GA) and polyacrylamide (PAAm) to form GA/PAAm/GR nanocomposite using gamma irradiation technique. In situ preparation of the magnetic nanocomposite and the magnetization was measured. Characterization the prepared nanocomposites was done using (FT-IR), (FESEM), (HRTEM), (XRD), (TGA). It can be obtained that a high swelling percent was observed for all systems that increased with time until reached the steady state after 5 h and the maximum was at pH 10. The swelling percent were ordered in sequence of GA/PAAm-magnetic > GA/PAAm/GR-magnetic > GA/PAAm > GA/PAAm/GR. The thermal stability of the magnetic nanocomposite was higher than non-magnetic one. The mechanical properties were determined using nanoindentation. The elastic modulus and the hardness of GA/PAAm matrix increased by adding GR and GR-magnetic in the nanocomposites.
