We developed a spray-coated graphene film on recyclable plastic that offers antifog, electrical, and thermal properties. This versatile smart coating enhances performance for flexible electronics in packaging, aerospace, and beyond.

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Surface Engineering

Background:

  • Flexible and wearable electronics require advanced coatings with multiple functionalities.
  • Existing coatings often lack multifunctionality or are not compatible with recyclable substrates.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a low-cost, large-area graphene-based coating with combined antifog, electrical, and thermal properties.
  • To enable spray deposition of these smart coatings onto commercially recyclable plastic substrates.

Main Methods:

  • Formulation of a graphene ink with polyvinylpyrrolidone in a low-boiling-point solvent.
  • Spray deposition onto polyethylene substrates.
  • Integration of a poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) layer for electrical conductivity.

Main Results:

  • Graphene films exhibited antifog properties, reducing contact angle by 1.5-fold with improved optical transmittance.
  • Mechanical testing showed over 1.8-fold improvement in Young's modulus.
  • Achieved electrical conductivity (330 Ω/sq) and demonstrated heater capabilities (50 °C at 30 V).
  • Significant improvements in thermal conductivity were observed for single-layer (97%) and multilayer (283%) coatings.

Conclusions:

  • Spray-coated graphene and graphene/PEDOT:PSS multilayer coatings offer a novel combination of antifog, electrical, and thermal functionalities on recyclable plastics.
  • These smart coatings have broad applicability in flexible electronics, packaging, automotive, and aerospace industries.
