A protective coating is applied on the material surface to enhance the wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and aesthetics and are imperative for the industries, automobiles, and domestic appliances. Recently, researchers are interested in graphene-based nanosheets (GNS) as an additive to coatings owing to their exceptional mechanical, chemical, and catalytic properties, in turn ensuing variety of valuable applications. Here, in the present investigation we have synthesized the graphene oxide (GO) and graphene and blended with our optimized formulation (coating), comprises Alkyd, BUF resin, butyl cellulose, butanol, xylene, para-toluene sulphonic acid, and graphene-based nanosheets. Experiments are carried out by coating the blend on the wood panels and are characterized for various properties such as viscosity, density, surface drying time, tack free drying time, gloss, cross cut, alkaline, and acid test. The experimental results have demonstrated that the desirable properties of coatings are enhanced upon incorporating graphene-based nanosheets. This work implies the potential of the nano thick graphene-based material and its adaptability can be effectively used in numerous technological applications.
