Abstract: A process for preparing a composition from graphite material by contacting the graphite material with a main solvent comprising at least 10% by weight, with respect to a total weight of the main solvent, of a vinyl aromatic monomer alone or in a mixture up to 50% by weight with additional copolymerizable monomers, thereby forming a starting composition; subjecting to an ultrasound treatment with a frequency spectrum ranging between 18 kHz and 1000 kHz, at a pressure equal to or higher than 2 bar absolute and in a container or sonication chamber wherein no separated phase of fluid at the gaseous phase contacts said composition; and polymerizing at least 1% of the vinyl aromatic monomer present in the main solvent, wherein the composition is at least partially polymerized and contains graphene and graphene nanoplatelets durably dispersed in the solvent, and the composition is without any evident formations of deposits or separated phases for at least 30 days.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition containing graphene and graphene nanoplatelets durably dispersed in a solvent. Said composition is characterized in that it contains at least 1% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the solvent, of a vinyl aromatic polymer and comprises a mass concentration of graphene and graphene nanoplatelets (GRS) ranging from 0.001% to 10% by weight with respect to the total weight of the solvent. The vinyl aromatic polymer present in the composition is obtained by partial or total polymerization of the relative vinyl aromatic monomer alone or mixed with up to 50% by weight of further copolymerizable monomers. The composition must satisfy the condition that the sum of the possible content of non-reacted monomers and the content of vinyl aromatic polymer formed is equal to at least 10% by weight with respect to the total weight of the solvent.
