Some polymers show low thermal properties which can be improved by adding various types of materials. Using nanoparticles, an enhancement of thermal properties can be obtained, even for small contents of additives. The evaluation of thermal properties of polymer composites with graphene can be achieved relying on Differential Scanning Calorimetry tests (DSC). This work presents a few conclusions resulting from DSC tests of the polyester composites with graphene and graphite.
