Abstract

In this mini review we discuss the interactions of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with graphene and the experimental approaches developed so far to create novel graphene/PAH hybrids and composite systems. The utilization of these systems in electrical, biomedical and polymer-reinforcement applications is described while special emphasis is given to environmental remediation issues.

Keywords: Graphene, graphene oxide, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, non-covalent interactions, nanocomposites, polymer reinforcement, environmental remediation.
