The elastic properties of armchair and zigzag graphene nanoribbons grafted with different functional groups are investigated using molecular dynamics. The simulation results show that the Young’s moduli of graphenes with autoupdate- grafted hydrogen (-H) are 982 GPa for zigzag and 1046 GPa for armchair. When the graphenes are grafted with hydroxyl (-OH), amine (–NH2), carboxylic (–COOH), and thiol (–SH) groups, Graphene–OH shows the highest Young’s modulus, followed by graphene–COOH. Among the moduli obtained, those for graphene–NH2 and...
