Nanocomposite is a multiphase solid material where one of the phases has one, two or three dimensions of less than 100 nanometers (nm) or structures having nano-scale repeat distances between the different phases that make up the material. The unusual thermal properties of graphene have been used to improve the thermal stability and conductivity in nano-composites. The 2D geometry of graphene base materials may offer lower interfacial thermal resistance and thus provide higher thermal conductivity in nanocomposites. Graphene nanocomposites exhibits exceptional electronic, mechanical and thermal properties which are anticipated to increase its use as primary filling agents in composites applications. Graphene composites at low loadings exhibit substantial enhancements in multifunctional aspects in comparison to conventional composites and their materials. This is the factor that makes the material lighter and stronger for use in numerous applications, which apparently increases the physiochemical qualities of the host matrix or material on distribution.
