發展環境友善性的塗料為化工產業的長期目標，其中部分添加物對環境汙染已為急需解決的問題。在2017年1月底，美國通過禁止售出含有二苯甲酮、桂皮酸鹽的防曬乳產品，係因此類化學物質會影響珊瑚生長，造成海洋生態的破壞，而其中二苯甲酮即為塗料中常用的紫外光吸收劑。本實驗將探討利用石墨烯或氧化石墨烯的吸光特性來取代現有的紫外光吸收劑。
本實驗將選用常用的PMMA(聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯)、PU(聚氨酯)、Epoxy(環氧樹脂)、NC(硝基漆)塗料作為研究標的，探討塗料摻混石墨烯的抗黃化反應特性，並探討其他物理化學特性的變化，如：附著性、硬度、抗腐蝕性、光澤度等。此外，進一步使用PMMA、PU、PC、Epoxy、PVC(聚氯乙烯)樹脂，探討石墨烯的共振結構以及氧化石墨烯的親水官能基，對樹脂特性的影響以及抗黃化的機制。
本實驗結果顯示塗料添加石墨烯或氧化石墨烯後，可有效的提高抗黃化效果，特別是針對PMMA塗料。部分配方可將抗黃化效果提高15倍，附著性上升2-3倍，由此可知石墨烯與氧化石墨烯除可有效的取代既有的紫外光吸收劑，亦能提高塗料的功能特性，長時間測試結果顯示石墨烯和氧化石墨烯作為在塗料與樹脂添加劑的應用潛力。

The development of environment-friendly paint is the long-term target in chemical industry, and reducing pollution from some additives becomes an urgent problem now. At the end of January in 2017, the United States forbids the addition of octinoxate and oxybenzone for suntan lotion due to these materials will affect the growth of coral ocean and thus damage marine ecology seriously. However, the oxybenzone is the most popular ultraviolet-light absorber for paint so far. In this study, graphene and graphene oxide with peculiar light-absorbent property were applied to replace the common absorber.
The popular paints, PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylate), PU (polyurethanes), Epoxy (polyepoxide) and NC (Nitro-Lacquer), were chosen as targets. The graphene or graphene oxide were respectively added into paints for the investigation of the yellowing resistance and other physical and chemical characteristics, such as adhesion, hardness, corrosion resistance, and glossiness. The basic raw material of paint, resins (PMMA, PU, PC, Epoxy and PVC (polyvinyl chloride), were further mixed with graphene and graphene oxide skillfully. The effects of conjugation structure and hydrophilic functional group of graphene and graphene oxide on resins were analyzed to clarify the anti-yellowing mechanism.

The results indicated that yellowing resistance of paint is increased with the presence of proper amount of graphene or graphene oxide, especially for PMMA paints. A certain formula is 15 times the yellowing resistance and 2-3 times the adhesion of the raw paint. As shown in results, the additions of graphene and graphene oxide can not only act as good ultraviolet-light absorber but also enhance the mechanic property of paint. The long-term tests indicated the practicability of graphene and graphene oxide as the environmental-friendly additives for paint and resin.
