In this work, we used tunicate-derived cellulose nanocrystals （TCNC） instead of traditional elastomers as the matrix for polydopamine （PDA）-coated and reduced graphene oxide （GO） to prepare conductive paper, which, at a low concentration, were better for the formation of conductive networks from conductive sheets. It was found that the Young’s modulus of the conductive paper produced via this strategy reached as high as 7 GPa. Meanwhile, owing to the partial reduction of GO during the polymerization of dopamine, the conductivity of the conductive paper reached as high as 1.3×10-5 S/cm when the PDA-coated GO content was 1 wt%, which was much higher than the conductivity of pure GO （-4.60×10-8 S/cm）. This work provides a new strategy for preparing environmentally friendly conductive papers with good mechanical properties and low conductive fller content, which may be used to produce high-performance, low-cost electronic devices.展开更多
