This work reports the fabrication and characterization of three-dimensional (3D) graphene aerogel (GA)–polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composites (GAPC) with outstanding mechanical, electrical and thermal properties. GAPC was fabricated by impregnating 3D GA frameworks with PDMS via ice-bath-assisted in...
