Graphene (Gr) can significantly improve the mechanical properties of metal matrix materials. However, the reinforcing effect of Gr on stainless steel (SS) has rarely been investigated due to the difficulty in its uniform dispersion. In this study, 316L stainless steel was reinforced with copper-coat...
