ASSISTED DEVELOPMENT OF MESOPHASE PITCH WITH DISPERSED GRAPHENE AND ITS RESULTING CARBON FIBERS

The efficacy of dispersed reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as a nucleation site for the growth of mesophase in an isotropic pitch was investigated and quantified in this study. Concentrations of rGO were systematically tested in an isotropic petroleum and coal-tar pitch during thermal treatments and com...
