Abstract

Graphene, monolayers of two-dimensional (2D) carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice structure have distinct properties in the field of materials especially in Nano composites. Graphene is also a potential nanofiller compared to other materials with better mechanical and thermal properties. However, synthesis of nanomaterial in its pristine form is challenging and defects are unavoidable during the synthesis through various techniques. Even though defects such as point and line defects may retard some physical properties, these are also intentionally created in specific applications such as nanocomposites, nanosensors and others. In this article various mechanical properties of nanofillers such as graphene with defects are compared in the application of composites.
