Monday, 12 August; 1140-1200:GRAPHENE: NOVEL BARRIER MATERIAL FOR CORROSION PROTECTION; IMPROVING SERVICE LIFE OF OFFSHORE PAINT Norfarah Aba, Petronas Research Sdn Bhdsame time:GRAPHENE-BASED MATERIALS AS STRAIN SENSORS IN FIBRE/EPOXY MODEL COMPOSITES Jingwen Chu, The University Of ManchesterThis study has demonstrated the use of both discontinuous graphene nanoplatelets and continuous CVD grown graphene as strain sensors in a glass fiber/epoxy model composite using Raman spectroscopy.
Monday, 12 August; 1200-1220:MAGNETIC CONTROL OF MICROSTRUCTURE IN GRAPHENE EPOXY NANOCOMPOSITES Mark Eaton, Cardiff UniversityThis paper investigates the magnetisation of graphene via decoration with Iron Oxide. Graphene flakes are actuated in epoxy composites using very low (<100mT) fields strengths. The control of orientation and microstructure is demonstrated leading to control and enhancement of properties.
Monday, 12 August; 1630-1650:MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF GRAPHENE NANOPLATELETS COATED CARBON FIBER EPOXY COMPOSITES Alok Kumar Srivastava, Indian Institute Of Technology BombayThe flexural strength of the carbon fiber epoxy based laminates has been found to improve significantly with GNP addition using the spray coating method.
Monday, 12 August; 1810-1830 HYBRID THERMOSET COMPOSITES FOR IMPROVING FRACTURE TOUGHNESS Kanokporn Tangthana-umrung, The University Of ManchesterCombining the advantages of the engineering thermoplastic and graphene nanoplatelets to improve fracture toughness of epoxy while maintaining all mechanical and thermal properties of material.

Thursday, 15 August; 1240-1300GRAPHENE/POLYMER COMPOSITES FOR IMPROVED BARRIER PERFORMANCE Thomas Raine, University Of ManchesterWe observe an order of magnitude reduction in carbon dioxide permeation and shutdown of hydrogen sulfide permeation through polyamide/graphene laminates. Epoxy/CF/graphene composites show a 60% reduction in carbon dioxide permeation.
