A series of nanocomposites based on the biodegradable plastic, polylactide (PLA), have been prepared by melt-blending with graphene (Gra) and ionic liquid containing phosphonium ([PCMIM]PF6, IL) surface-functionalized graphene (GIL).
High internal phase emulsion templated, interconnected macroporous hydrogels with rapid absorption, high and tunable water uptakes were fabricated for enhancing water efficiency in extinguishing fires and preventing combustible objects from burning.
