Synthesis and Adsorption Property of Graphite Oxide Modified GF/EPDM Foamed Composite

In our study, a new kind of water treatment composite was prepared by melt blending and molding foaming, with synthetic rubber EPDM as the matrix, graphite oxide modified glass fiber (GF) as the filler. The foamed composite had a certain adsorption capacity of methylene blue dye in the water and toluene. With the increase of the graphite oxide modified GF, the composite on the methylene blue adsorption rate was increased, however, for toluene, the rate of adsorption was reduced. Due to restrictions on the oxidation of graphite and composite structures and the adsorption capacity of the material was limited.
