Two-dimensional materials modified layered double hydroxides: A series of fillers for improving gas barrier and permselectivity of poly(vinyl alcohol)

A series of modified 2D nanosheets (graphene oxide-layered double hydroxide, GO-LDH; boron nitride-LDH, BN-LDH; and molybdenum disulfide-LDH, MoS2-LDH) are prepared via a cost-effective, environmentally-friendly, and effortless method based on the concept of electrostatic interaction. The modified 2D nanosheet/Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanocomposite films show a comprehensive improvement of physicochemical properties. Among the synthesized...
