Graphene is a hexagonal honeycomb-shaped two-dimensional carbon nanomaterial composed of sp2 hybrid orbitals,with the advantages of large specific surface area,good electrical conductivity and high mechanical strength.Although widely used in the field of electrocatalysis,it also has the disadvantages of easy stacking and few active sites.The electrocatalytic activity of graphene materials is related to its atomic arrangement,molecular adsorption and activation,electronic structure,and charge transport.This paper reviews the methods of improving the electrocatalytic performance of graphene materials,such as improving their intrinsic activity through doping regulation,realizing the synergy between different components through interface control,changing atomic arrangement through phase control,and changing local environment through structural control.And it is pointed out that the organic integration between the doping regulation with the other three active regulation methods is the future development direction.
