Polymer nanocomposites are a new class of composite material reinforced with a nano-scale filler of polymer matrices. Polymer nanocomposites create new type of hybrid material with unique electrical, thermal properties. Moreover, polymer nanocomposites demonstrate improved mechanical and physical properties which include enhanced optical (light transmission) and dialectical properties. Polymer nanocomposites are also corrosion resistant materials. Improved mechanical and physical properties of polymers by addition of nanoparticles depends upon a number of factors such as processing technique and interfacial interaction between host polymer & nanoparticle. Thus, synthesis of polymer nanocomposites is an integral aspect of polymer nanotechnology. Polymer nanocomposites must have at least one dimension ranging between 1-50 nm.
