Graphene oxide (GO) has attracted huge scientific interest due to its unique physical and chemical properties as well as its wide-scale applicability including facile synthesis and high yield. Here, we report preparation of nanocomposites based on GO and unsaturated polyester resin (PE). The synthesized samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and tensile strength measurements. A good dispersion of the GO sheets within the resin matrix was observed from the morphological analysis. A significant enhancement in mechanical properties of the PE/GO composites is obtained at low graphene loading. Around 76% improvement of tensile strength and 41% increase of Young's modulus of the composites are achieved at 3 wt % loading of GO. Thermal analysis of the composite showed a noticeable improvement in thermal stability in comparison to neat PE. (c) 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2013
