▎ 摘　　要

This paper reviews the potential application of graphene and its derivatives as nano filler in a variety of thermoplastic polymers. The graphene derivatives in the form of graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) have been explored. Processing routes like dip coating, casting, spray deposition, vacuum infiltration, solution mixing, melt mixing and In-situ polymerization to derive graphene-based thermoplastic polymer nano composites have been discussed. Various thermoplastic polymers like Acrylic, ABS, Nylon 6, PLA, PBI, PC, PES, POM, PEEK, PEI, PE, PPO, PPS, PP, PS, PVC, PVDF and PTFE have been taken into consideration. Characterization of these polymer composites was reviewed.
