An ultra‐light and high‐strength Graphene nanoplatelets (F‐GNPs)/epoxy nanocomposite was achieved using a strategy of non‐covalent functionalization by melamine as represented in the image. In article 1700412 , Joonhui Kim and co‐workers demonstrate the incorporation of melamine drives exceptionally enhanced mechanical properties of the nanocomposite via homogeneous dispersion and enhanced interfacial cohesion between GNP flakes and epoxy matrix.
