In this study, 1-D Ag nanowires (NWs), 2-D chemically reduced graphene (CRG), and hybrid CRG–Ag NW fillers were investigated for use as conductive epoxy composites. By combining the 2-D CRG with 1-D Ag NWs, the percolation limit of the Ag NWs decreased from 30 wt% to 10 wt% and the electrical conductivity was dramatically enhanced because of the decreased tunneling resistance between the Ag NWs due to the thin 2-D conductive CRGs. Their thermal and mechanical properties were also improved due to the chemical crosslinking effects between CRGs and the hardener in the epoxy matrix as well as the physical crosslinking effects between nano-structures and polymer chains. The break strength of the CRG/Ag-NW/epoxy composite was 50% higher than that of the pure epoxy resin.
