Summary:The present invention refers to a process for obtaining reduced graphene immersed into a polymeric matrix obtained from graphite oxide during the preparation of a hybrid nanocomposite by means ultrasound-assisted melt mixing. The mixing temperature of the polymer may produce the thermo-reduction of the graphite and the exfoliation thereof in reduced graphene sheets, while the application of ultrasound allows the polymer chains to be hydrated over said sheets. The process results in a polymeric nanocomposite with an immersed graphene nanohybrid, which presents excellent properties. On the other hand, the process is performed in a single step for avoiding the disadvantages generated by the handle and control of nanoparticles in industrial processes. La presente invención se refiere a un proceso para la obtención de grafeno reducido inmerso en una matriz polimérica a partir de óxido de grafito durante la preparación de nanocompuestos híbridos mediante el mezclado en fundido asistido con ultrasonido. La temperatura de mezclado del polímero produce la termo-reducción del óxido de grafito y su exfoliación en láminas de grafeno reducido, mientras que la aplicación de ultrasonido permite la hibridación de las cadenas de polímero sobre dichas láminas. El proceso da como resultado un nanocompuesto polimérico con un nanohíbrido de grafeno inmerso los cuales presentan excelentes propiedades. Por otro lado, al realizarse en una sola etapa se evita los inconvenientes generados por el manejo y control de nanopartículas en procesos industriales.
