Abstract

L'invention concerne des compositions comprenant des feuilles de graphène et au moins un composé aliphatique multifonctionnel. Les compositions peuvent facultativement contenir un polymère et/ou des catalyseurs acides. Elles peuvent se présenter sous la forme d'encres ou de revêtements. Les composés aliphatiques multifonctionnels utilisés dans la présente invention comprennent au moins deux groupes fonctionnels réactifs qui comprennent au moins un hétéroatome. Les groupes fonctionnels sont, de préférence, nucléophiles ou électrophiles, et sont aptes à réagir avec des groupes hydroxyle, des acides carboxyliques ou des dérivés d'acides carboxyliques et/ou des groupes époxy. Des exemples de groupes fonctionnels comprennent, mais sans y être limités, les hydroxyles, les groupes hydroperoxy et peroxy, les acides carboxyliques, les sels d'acide carboxylique, les esters, les anhydrides, les halogénures d'acides, les aldéhydes, les acétals, les cétals, les hémiacétals, les orthoesters, les carbonates, les groupes amino, les amides, les imines, les imides, les azides, les cyanates, les isocyanates, les groupes thiol, sulfo, sulfino, les thiocyanates, les époxy, les éthers, etc.
