▎ 摘　　要

The main objective of this research is to assess a graphene/Al nanocomposite with a higher strength and conductivity for use in high-capacity conductors in power transmission lines. In this study, the graphene/Al nanocomposite and pure aluminum specimens were prepared using ball milling of aluminum and graphene powders, the mechanical-electromagnetic stirrer casting process, hot extrusion and finally, annealing. The microstructural, mechanical and electrical behavior of the Al 1350 nanocomposite cast reinforced with 0.5 wt% graphene and unreinforced aluminum were studied at 20 degrees C and 180 degrees C temperatures. The results revealed that, by adding graphene to pure aluminum, the tensile strength, toughness and electrical conductivity increased, but the elongation of the Al-0.5 wt% GNP composite decreased at both temperatures.
