Abstract
Currently, the research and development in the field of graphene, graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide and its combination with several nanoparticles has accrued an extensive attention in scientific research field in both academic and industrial. The hybridization is considered as a best process which is incorporating graphene nanosheets with various nanoparticles such as nanoclays, silver nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes and many others. The obtained materials are well-known as a hybride nanocomposites that characterized by their excellent properties and high performances which are related to the properties of both graphene and nanoparticles. These outstanding properties make hydride nanocomposite a great candidate for potential applications in different areas including, materials science and engineering, medicine and biology, energy storage and environmental remediation. Herein, this chapter gives you an idea about the various derivatives of graphene and their functional hybride materials, followed by the detailed introduction on graphene- nanostructures hybrids. The present chapter reveals the interest from the hybridization of graphene derivatives with different nanoparticles. After a brief introduction about graphene and its importance in nontechnology field. In the second part, we give you some basic information about graphene its preparation, characterization and the nanocomposites made from graphene. The third part concerns the hybride nanocomposites made up from graphene with various nanostructures. It also includes industrial and practical application of graphene-nanoparticles hybrids.
