Graphene insertion into aluminium matrix composites (AMCs) has demonstrated a great deal of promise for improving the electromechanical characteristics that are essential for energy storage applications. This work explores the electromechanical properties of aluminium nanocomposites reinforced with graphene, with a particular emphasis on the materials' conductivity, capacity for storing charge, and general appropriateness for applications in super capacitors and advanced batteries. Aluminium can be reinforced with graphene because of its superior mechanical strength, large surface area, and outstanding electrical conductivity. A range of fabrication techniques, including chemical reduction procedures and powder metallurgy, were utilized to attain the best possible dispersion of graphene in the aluminium matrix. Optimising the interfacial connection between graphene and aluminium resulted in improved electromechanical performance and efficient load transmission.The results of this study highlight the potential contribution of aluminium nanocomposites reinforced with graphene to the advancement of energy storage technologies. Future research will concentrate on understanding the fundamental principles that control these materials' electromechanical behaviour and investigating the materials' long-term stability and scalability for commercial uses.
