Mechanical performance of graphene/polymethyl-methacrylate nano-composites under tension loads: A coarse-grained molecular dynamic simulation

  • 摘要: 高强度是复合材料设计追求的重要目标,自然界中的珍珠层具有优异的力学性能,受其复杂的层次结构的启发,设计了一种石墨烯交错排布增强聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯的纳米复合材料。利用粗粒化分子动力学模拟,系统地研究了拉伸载荷作用下石墨烯的二维几何形状、层数、空间排布对纳米复合材料整体力学性能的影响。结果表明,不同几何形状的石墨烯对复合材料的增强效果有很大的差异,其中,矩形与锯齿形接近,都强于梯形石墨烯;存在最佳的石墨烯层数使复合材料的整体拉伸力学性能最强;减少石墨烯层间距离或增加重叠距离,都可提升其力学性能。总之,现有的研究结果揭示了各个因素的影响规律及微观机制,为设计具有目标性能的纳米复合材料提供了理论指导。
