Claim 0:
1. A method of manufacturing a cured polymer resin using functionalized graphene oxide, comprising:
mixing functionalized graphene oxide with a resin precursor to produce a functionalized graphene mixture, wherein the particles contain functional groups identical to a reactive precursor in the resin precursor and cure at a same time as a polymer precursor material in the resin precursor;
adding a curing initiator to the functionalized graphene mixture and mixing to produce a formulation;
depositing the formulation into a desired shape; and
curing the formulation with at least one temperature of 220° C. to form a polymer having functionalized graphene oxide groups in a base polymer material.
