Abstract: Poly(vinyl alcohol)/graphite oxide intercalated nanocomposites have been prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Their differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry results suggest that the content of graphite oxide change the glass transition temperature of nanocomposites, and the increase of graphite oxide content can cause the increase of the oxidation temperature of nanocomposites and decrease of their mass loss rate.
