Abstract

Abstract:

The influence of graphene oxide(GO) on the linear and nonlinear rheological properties of poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA)/borate hydrogel was explored in this work. Results of scanning electron microscopy, ¹¹B nuclear magnetic resonance and rheology reveal that elastically active points formed between dispersed GO sheets and PVA chains have enhanced plateau modulus(G₀), relaxation time(τ) and zero shear viscosity(η₀) of samples when the mass concentration of GO(ρ(GO)) is in the dilute concentration regime. As ρ(GO) is further increased to the semi-dilute concentration regime, part of cross-linkers is occupied by GO aggregation and exists as non-elastically active GO-borate-GO bond, then G₀, τ and η₀ of samples are decreased with ρ(GO). Under steady shear, the enhancement of viscosity in shear thickening regime always increases with ρ(GO) in different concentration regimes, which is related with the participation of oriented GO sheets to reorganization of the network.

Key words: poly(vinyl alcohol)/borate hydrogel, grapheme oxide, shear thickening, rheology
