The poor thermal properties of ceramics limited its wide application. Recently, upgrading via reinforcing ceramics with graphene has been recognized as a feasible approach to enhance the thermal performance of ceramics, and then advance the applications due to the exceptional thermal properties of graphene. Thus, this review summarized the latest advances in manufacturing process, microstructure as well as the thermal properties of graphene reinforced ceramics (GRC), highlighting the impacts of sintering techniques, sintering parameters and graphene/ceramic matrix parameters on the thermal performance of GRC. Furthermore, microstructure model simulation was proposed as a supplement to the traditional trial and error method, so as to facilitate the research associated with GRC. Besides, the challenges coupled with outlook for GRC with the superior thermal properties were also envisioned to providing readers with deep understanding of future development of GRC.
