Globally, current research has developed new cement-based materials to meet increased demands for performance, energy efficiency, and environmental protection. Geopolymer, cost-effective, and high-early strength concrete binder alternative, has grown in popularity. Geopolymer reduces emissions by 80% during production while maintaining strength levels comparable to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). In their natural state, geopolymer binders have a microstructure that is cross-linked and significantly more brittle than OPC. To improve the properties of geopolymer, several approaches were adopted. However, recent study suggests that incorporating nanomaterials such as graphene oxide (GO) to geopolymer has shown an improvement in physical and mechanical properties. Graphene oxide is an inorganic nanomaterial that improves the mechanical characteristics of various composite materials by showing substantial filling effects on composite materials that significantly improve composite material integrity. The investigation into the potential of GO to improve the efficacy of geopolymer composite materials in various engineering applications has garnered considerable attention in recent years. The simplified hummers' method was employed to synthesise the GO.
