The impact on the mechanical properties of unidirectional carbon fiber (CF)/epoxy composites reinforced with pristine graphene nanoplatelets (GNP), highly concentrated graphene oxide (GO), and Functionalized Graphene Oxide (FGO) are investigated in this study. The localized reinforcing effect of each of the graphene nanoplatelet types on the epoxy matrix is predicted at the nanoscale-level by molecular dynamics. The bulk-level mechanical properties of unidirectional CF/epoxy hybrid composites are predicted using micromechanics techniques considering the reinforcing function, content, and aspect ratios for each of the graphene nanoplatelets. In addition, the effect of nanoplatelets dispersion level is also investigated for the pristine graphene nanoplatelets considering a lower dispersion level with four layers of graphene nanoplatelets (4GNP). The results indicate that the shear and transverse properties are significantly affected by the nanoplatelet type, loading and aspect ratio. The results of this study can be used in the design of hybrid composites to tailor specific laminate properties by adjusting nanoplatelet parameters.

A novel reduced graphene oxide/perylene bisimide-containing hyperbranched polyglycerol was successfully prepared via π–π stacking interactions. The thermal and mechanical properties of the epoxy composite were enhanced significantly.
