Graphene can be used to reinforce ceramic composites

Researchers from the University of Arizona and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute used Graphene to reinforce ceramic composites - and make it more fracture resistant. The team says they have significantly increased the toughness of a ceramic and made the first observations of graphene that arrest crack propagation and force the crack to change directions in not just two but also three dimensions.
