Herein we demonstrated electrically conductive and mechanically robust paper(AP/PB-GP) made of reduced graphene oxide via interfacial crosslinking with 1-aminopyrene(AP) and 1-pyrenebutyrat(PB) small molecules. The AP/PB-GP with thickness of over ten micrometer delivers a record-high toughness(~69.67 ± 15.3 MJ m^(-3) in average), simultaneously with superior strength(close to 1 GPa), allowing an impressive specific penetration energy absorption(~0.17 MJ kg^(-1)) at high impact velocities when used for ballistic impact protection. Detailed interfacial and structural analysis reveals that the reinforcement is synergistically determined by π-π interaction and H-bonding linkage between adjacent graphene lamellae. Especially, the defective pores within the graphene platelets benefit the favorable adsorption of the pyrene-containing molecules, which imperatively maximizes the interfacial binding, facilitating deflecting crack and plastic deformation under loading. Density functional theory simulation suggests that the coupling between the polar functional groups, e.g., –COOH, at the edges of graphene platelets and –NH_(2) and –COOH of AP/PB are critical to the formation of hydrogen bonding network.展开更多
