Abstract

Rolling enables the directional alignment of the reinforcements in graphene/Cu composites while achieving uniform graphene dispersion and matrix grain refinement. This is expected to achieve a breakthrough in composite performance. In this paper, the process parameters of rolling are investigated, and the defects, thickness variations of graphene and property changes of the composite under different parameters are analyzed. High-temperature rolling is beneficial to avoid the damage of graphene during rolling, and the prepared composites have higher electrical conductivity. The properties of graphene were investigated. Low-temperature rolling is more favorable to the thinning and dispersion of graphene; meanwhile, the relative density of the composites is higher in the low-temperature rolling process. With the increase of rolling deformation, the graphene defects slightly increased and the number of layers decreased. In this paper, the defect states of graphene and the electrical conductivity with different rolling parameters is comprehensively investigated to provide a reference for the rolling process of graphene/copper composites with different demands.
