Graphene-Polymer Nanocomposites for Drug Delivery ApplicationsBy Patil S.J., G.D. Gawande, Yogesh Khairnar, Mahesh Sharma, Mahadev Kalyanrao Patil
Abstract: Graphene-polymer nanocomposites (GPNCs) have gained significant attention in drug delivery due to their exceptional physicochemical properties, including high surface area, mechanical strength, tunable functionality, and biocompatibility. These nanocomposites integrate graphene derivatives, such as graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), with biocompatible polymers to enhance drug loading efficiency, stability, and controlled release. Various natural (chitosan, alginate) and synthetic (PLGA, PEG, PCL) polymers are used to functionalize graphene, enabling targeted …
