In the first part, the fabrication procedure of synthesizing graphene is discussed. Basically, we use Modified Hummer Method to oxidize graphite powder into graphene oxide (GO), and reduce graphene oxide back to graphene, also known as reduced graphene oxide (RGO), using hexamethylenetetramine (HTMA). From the result of XPS, Raman and AFM analysis, we’ve successfully demonstrated that graphene oxide is reduced back to graphene. In the second part, the mechanical properties of composite materials were discussed. We can extract stress and strain curve and Young’s modulus from tensile test. From these results, we’ve concluded that the ductility of Polyvinyl Alcohol has been d
