Abstract:
|
Graphene has attracted tremendous research interest in recent years, owing to its
exceptional properties. The scaled-up and reliable production of graphene derivatives,
such as graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), offers a wide range of
possibilities to synthesize graphene-based functional materials for various applications.
This critical review presents and discusses the current development of graphene-based
composites. After introduction of the synthesis methods for graphene and its derivatives
as well as their properties, we focus on the description of various methods to synthesize
graphene-based composites, especially those with functional polymers and inorganic
nanostructures. Particular emphasis is placed on strategies for the optimization of
composite properties. Lastly, the advantages of graphene-based composites in
2
applications such as the Li-ion batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, photovoltaic devices,
photocatalysis, as well as Raman enhancement are described. |
