Abstract The present study aims to improve the tensile and flexural properties of epoxy nanocomposites reinforced with graphene oxide (GO) reduced GO (rGO). specimens were prepared using different weight percentages ranging from 0.5 1.5 wt% through casting method. graphene, GO, rGO characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy. maximum strength modulus GO/epoxy estimated as 46.34 MPa 3.65 GPa, indicating a 45.63% 43.7% improvement an optimum loading 1.0 compared pure samples, respectively. On other hand, same filler content improves mentioned above 33.24% 31.1%. Moreover, strengths recorded 98.52 92.66 for rGO/epoxy nanocomposites, respectively, reinforcement samples. fracture surface has been analyzed field emission scanning microscopy (FE‐SEM). obtained results reveal that it is now feasible modify resin simple cost‐effective reinforcement, making promising material industrial applications such aerospace components, energy storage, biomedical. Highlights enhanced matrix. inclusion also improved modulus. SEM images revealed differences between nanocomposites. GO‐ rGO‐based composites are ideal advanced structural applications.
