Abstract

This review article focuses on polymer nanocomposites reinforced by layered silicates, graphite, carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers and nanoparticles. Particular attention is given to the structure, properties, classification and the procedures used for preparing such nanocomposites. The most common methods used for characterizing these nanocomposites are briefly introduced. Finally, the challenges in processing and production of nanocomposites, their impacts on health and environment as well as their future (potential applications and the market) are discussed.
