Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has wide application as a nanofiller in the fabrication of electroconductive biocomposites due to its exceptional properties. However, hydrophobicity and chemical stability rGO limit ability be incorporated into precursor polymers for physical mixing during biocomposite fabrication.
