Emerging Trends in Thermal Properties of Graphene

Abstract

We go over the thermal characteristics of graphene, few-layer graphene, and graphene nanoribbons, and we go over some real-world uses for graphene in energy storage and thermal control. The first section of the paper discusses the most recent developments in the graphene thermal area with an emphasis on the experimental and theoretical data on heat conduction in graphene and graphene nanoribbons that have recently been published. In the summary, the effects of the sample's size, shape, quality, strain distribution, isotope composition, and point-defect concentration are discussed. The thermal characteristics of materials used in energy storage that have been increased by graphene are described in the second section of the review. It has been established that the usage of liquid-phase-exfoliated graphene as a filler in phase change materials has promise for the thermal control of high-power density battery parks. The experimental and modelling findings have been disclosed.
