Molecular dynamics simulation of mechanical performance of graphene/graphene oxide paper based polymer composites

Highly ordered polymer composites of layered graphene/graphene oxide (GO) sheets, i.e. graphene/GO paper, are attractive candidates for novel structural and functional applications. Here, molecular dynamics simulations are employed to elucidate the structural and mechanical properties of the graphene/GO paper based polymer composites. We find that the large scale properties of these composites are controlled by the conformation and content of...
