Dispersion of graphene nanoplatelets in poly(vinyl acetate) latex and effect on adhesive bond strength

Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) were directly dispersed in poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) latex in concentrations from 0.05 up to 2 wt% (based on dry weight), without using additional surfactants or dispersants. Stable dispersions were obtained due to interaction of the GNPs with protective colloids (poly...
