Alloys are metals mixtures which would probably destroy the graphene with heat. I was thinking something more like carbon fibers, which are bonded with material similar to fiberglass.
Not if the graphene were deposited onto the cold alloy as a chemical vapor, or as a plasma injection deposition. Not sure if either one is possible. Just pointing out that the metal does not have to be formed onto the graphene. The graphene can be formed onto the metal, or other materials.

The first application that came to mind for me was razor blades that last forever and are sharper than the best alloy blades on the market.
