The nanocomposites are the most attentive topic of the study currently in the material science world which is likely to bring the industrial revolution. Graphene reinforced polypropylene nanocomposite was fabricated in the balanced formulation of filler & carrier additives through melt mixing process at the trend of industrial practices. The concept of molecular arrangement was hypothesized and executed out practically. The master batch was prepared as the primary preparatory work using Twin Screw Extruder and the finished product was obtained by using the same master batch through injection molding. The percolation threshold was considered to be 5% wt. Graphene in finished product which has been proved as the innovative product line. A series of destructive and non-destructive tests and characterization techniques were conducted, analyzed and presented. First time the entire range of properties has been explored including electrical, thermal, gas barrier & mechanical properties. The resulted product has proven to be used at the industrial scale immediately and has opened the new directions in making use of other class of polymers.
