Abstract

A nanocomposite film of nitrate glycerol ether cellulose (NGEC)/graphene oxide (GO) was presented by a casting/evaporation technique. The effect of GO contents on mechanical properties of the NGEC/GO films was studied. Compared with pristine NGEC, the integration of 0.5 wt% GO resulted in 40%, 38% and 44% increase in Young's modulus, tensile strength and elongation at break of the NGEC/GO film.
