In recent years, the progress of doped carbon catalysts (such as graphene-based nanocomposites), has attracted the tremendous attention of the scientific
community because of their broad area of applications involving unique mechanical,
electrical and industrial chemical production processes. The catalytic nature of metaldoped graphene-based nanocomposites has significantly improved, and provides
alternatives to traditional transition metal-based catalysts. In addition, the progress of
simple and easy synthetic approaches for graphene-based nanocomposites provides a
wide range of opportunities for the synthesis of graphene-based nanocomposites via
incorporating various metal or polymer-based nanomaterials for diverse applications.
In this context, the recent development in the synthesis of graphene-based
nanocomposites, their properties and applications are summarized in this chapter. The
future insights and challenges towards the design and utilization of graphene-based
nanocomposites with decent stability and enhanced catalytic performance are also
outlined in this chapter.
