An graphene composites have reduced graphene oxide and a layered double-hydroxide distributed on the reduced graphene oxide. The composites may also include nanopores formed within the reduced graphene oxide and micropores that may be formed by the reduced graphene oxide. The composites may exhibit superior electrical and/or absorbent properties. Capacitor devices and electrodes containing the composites are also disclosed, as well as methods and systems configured to make and use the composites.
