Abstract	Using nanoscience to solve the issues that limit the development of sustainable society is one of the most important topics at present. Sustainable polymers play an important role in the construction of sustainable society, but its large-scale application is usually limited by the poor mechanical and shape-memory properties of the commonly-used epoxy resin. The utilization of nanoarchitectures to improve the shape memory performance of composite materials is an effective approach. Graphene, amongst the used reinforcement materials for epoxy resin, is undoubtedly the most fascinating example. In this paper, the shape memory and mechanical properties of graphene-modified epoxy resins are described respectively for different response types. In this mini review we present an overview on the research results of graphene nanoarchitectonics in modification of shape memory epoxy resin composites. Besides, this paper has reviewed the properties of different types of graphene/epoxy composites, which looking forward to the development of graphene/epoxy composites and future prospects.
