A Comprehensive Review on Composites

ABSTRACT

Composites are one of the most important materials of twenty first century having wide range of applications in the field of electronics to aeronautics and space industries. The excellent mechanical properties and low specific weights are basis of their demanding importance in technology. Polymer composites are a special type composite that are having organic or inorganic polymers as  matrix and particles, small fibers in the range of millimeter to nanometer range are used as reinforcing material. These are tech friendly because of having remarkable features like light weight, high specific strength and high stiffness, economic efficiency, easier way of fabrication, good resistance towards fatigue, etc. In polymer nanocomposites  solid particles or fibers in the nano range (<100 nm, in at least one dimension) are embedded in polymer matrices. They are very important for industrial applications due to their very high surface area compared to microcomposites. It is noteworthy to mention that minute amount of nanoaterials (5 wt%) are needed to bring magical changes in the composite behaviour. Polymer nanocomposites are unique  in terms of thermal stability, mechanical behaviour, toughness and barrier potential.
