As a kind of monolayer honeycomb carbon materials

graphene was widely used as filler in thermal conductive composites due to its huge specific surface area

good thermal/chemical stability

simple chemically modified and high thermal conductivity. Recently

as one of the most investigated heat conduction polymers

the thermal conductive graphene/polymer composite is focus on the improvement of the graphene material interfacial compatibility and dispersion property in polymer matrix. In this paper

the preparations

thermal properties and various different heat transfer mechanisms of thermal conductive graphene/polymer composites in recent years were presented in detail. Meanwhile

the future research prospects of thermal conductive graphene/polymer composites were briefly advocated according to the present research actuality.
