wherein in the polymer-graphene composite, the carbonyl group and the graphene are directly bound to each other, and
wherein the graphene contains one or more oxidative functional groups selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, a carbonyl group and a carboxyl group in an amount of less than 1% by weight based on a total weight of graphene,
wherein in the functional group, the carbonyl group and the alkylene group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms are directly bound to each other,
wherein a ratio of a diameter to a thickness of the graphene is 50 to 6,000.

2. The polymer-graphene composite according to claim 1 , wherein in the polymer-graphene composite, the alkylene group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms and the polymer are directly bound to each other.
