Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) hybrid nanocomposites reinforced with hybrid synthetic wollastonite nanofibers (SWN)/graphene oxide (GO) were successfully prepared by melt compounding. The present work studied the effect of GO content on the structural, morphological, mechanical, thermal and tribol...
