| contents | We report the scientific and technical queries regarding the article reported by Kim et al.1 on the mechanical properties of graphene-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites. Our analysis finds that the current experimental data is insufficient to fully support the conclusions presented in the article. We suggest the enhancement in Youngs modulus and strength of the graphene-PMMA laminates (GPL) samples are mainly due to the heat treatment of the polymer rather than the incorporation of graphene. The Raman spectroscopy data (as per our analysis) for the GPL samples indicates that large cracks and defects were introduced during the hot rolling process used to fabricate the graphene-PMMA composite. We believe that the queries will aid the audience in better understanding the mechanical response of graphene-PMMA composites. |
