The Incorporation of Graphene Nanoplatelets in Tung Oil–Urea Formaldehyde Microcapsules: A Paradigm Shift in Physicochemical Enhancement

The Incorporation of Graphene Nanoplatelets in Tung Oil–Urea Formaldehyde Microcapsules: A Paradigm Shift in Physicochemical Enhancement

Tung oil (TO) microcapsules (MCs) with a poly(urea-formaldehyde) (PUF) shell were synthesized via one-step in situ polymerization, with the addition of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) (1–5 wt. %). The synergistic effects of emulsifiers between gelatin (gel) and Tween 80 were observed, with gel chosen...
