Polymer-Nanocomposites

Composites are the materials in which two or more materials are mixed together combine some of the advantages of the component materials forming some novel materials. Dispersions of nanoparticles in polymers (or any other medium) give rise to nanocomposites. Nanocomposites have a great potential for different applications as a new generation of multifunctional materials. In this article, few of our research activities on metal-polymer nanocomposites are outlined. A discussion some on synthesis and characterization methods on polymer nanocomposites are discussed. Some possible applications of these novel materials in memory devices, sensors, optical filters, etc. have been discussed.
