Graphene/layered double hydroxides nanocomposites: A review of recent progress in synthesis and applications

Hybrids of graphene (G) and layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are promising nanomaterials due to their versatile properties and the large number of composition/preparation variables available for fine-tuning. Several techniques are available for the synthesis of these novel G/LDHs nanocomposites. This article reviews the recent developments in their synthesis and applications in the oxygen evolution reaction, supercapacitors, hybrid sensors, adsorption, catalysis, water purification, and flame retardant materials.
