Abstract

In recent years there are targeted efforts on the event of advanced materials through the addition of nano-reinforcements on numerous matrices for higher mechanical, thermal and physical properties. The nonmaterial’s era has attracted the structural scientists, engineers and industries with an easy target to style and develop new multifunctional nanocomposite materials with distinctive combination of properties impossible with ancient materials. Like ancient composites, the nanocomposites may have a bimetal, compound or ceramics matrix. In general, chemical compound matrix composites offer high specific stiffness, specific strength, fatigue and corrosion resistance than metals, yet, they need poor impact energy absorption and poor residual strength once impact particularly in harsh environments. Nanocomposites may alleviate such problems if issues such uniform dispersion of the nanofillers within the matrix is achieved through the choice of an appropriate process methodology.
