The effects of graphene feed ratio on catalyst morphology and ethylene polymerization behavior were examined. The synthesized catalyst exhibited very high activity for ethylene polymerization. The resultant polyethylene (PE)/G nanocomposites showed a layered morphology, and the graphene fillers were well dispersed in the PE matrix. In addition, the thermal stability and mechanical properties of PE were significantly enhanced with the introduction of a very small amount of G fillers (0.05 wt%). This work provides a facile approach to the production o fhigh‐performance PE.展开更多
