The discovery of graphene provided an immense boost up and new Received in revised form dimension to materials research and nanotechnology. The multidisciplinary characteristics of graphene 21 January 2020 havea wide range of applications from health to aerospace. Modern graphene research has been directed Accepted 23 January 2020 Available online 31 January 2020 towards the exploration of new graphene derivatives and their utilisations for fabrication of products and devices. The enhancement of graphene properties by functionalization or surface modification is another innovative approach. However like other 2D materials graphene research also needs amendments and Keywords Graphene up-gradation in the light of recent scientific output. In this contribution we have reassessed the recent 2D materials research output on graphene and graphene-based materials for applications in different fields. For the Graphene oxide reader s comfort and to maintain lucidity first some fundamental aspects of graphene are .
