【 摘 要 】

The conductive paper has been of great interest due to its flexibility and superior properties. In this work, the facile procedure with scalable possibility was used to prepare conductive paper with graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO). GO synthesized by the modified Hummers' method was successfully transformed to rGO using ascorbic acid. These GO and rGO were used as a conductive source to improve conductive properties of the as-prepared paper. GO and rGO (0 - 25 wt%) were mixed with nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) to form conductive paper. Results showed that the reduction of the electrical resistance was found from both GO/NFC and rGO/NFC paper sheets with increasing a content of GO or rGO. Furthermore, the paper with rGO exhibited more outstanding electrical conductive than the GO/NFC paper. Also, the water uptake of the conductive paper was affected by the addition of GO or rGO. The significant reduction of water uptake was found to be more pronounced with the introduction of rGO in comparison with the presence of GO. The conductive paper prepared in this study would be useful for applications such as flexible electrode.
