Robert J Young
Manchester University, UK
Professor Young studied Natural Sciences at the University of Cambridge and gained his PhD in 1973. After working at Queen Mary College in London he became Professor of Polymer Science and Technology in Manchester in 1986. Between 2004 and 2009 he was Head of the School of Materials in the newly-formed University of Manchester. He was elected to the Royal Academy of Engineering in 2006, the Royal Society in 2013 and to Academia Europaea, the Academy of Europe in 2015.
Professor Young’s main research interest is the relationships between structure and properties in polymers and composites publishing a number of books and over 350 papers, many of which are highly cited. He has lectured extensively at international conferences. His research interests have extended recently into the field nanotechnology, working in particular upon nanocomposites containing graphene.

Abstract

In the decade since the first isolation and identification of graphene, the scientific community is still finding ways to utilize its unique properties. The presentation will deal with the preparation and physicochemical characterization of graphene-based elastomeric nanocomposites. The processing and characterization of graphene and graphene oxide will be described in detail, and it will be shown that the presence of such fillers in an elastomeric matrix affects dramatically the properties of the nanocomposite materials. Recent studies upon the effect of the addition of graphene nanoplatelets to natural rubber will be described and the mechanisms of reinforcement will be discussed.
