Abstract:
1. A methods for making nano-composite comprising: contacting a graphite material dispersion in a first solvent system with a polymer solution in a second solvent system, where the polymers include sufficient π-conjugatedpolymerizable pendant moieties to interact with surfaces of the graphite material to form a partially or completely polymer coated graphite material, where the polymerizable pendant moieties are selected from the group consisting of thiophene, terthiophene, carbazole, fluorene, aniline, pyrrole, and mixtures or combinations thereof, forming a second dispersion comprising the partially or completely polymer coated graphite material; preparing a substrate; and applying the second dispersion to the substrate or a surface thereof to form a substrate including a layer comprising the partially or completely polymer coated graphite material.
