The aim of the present edited book is to furnish scientific information about manufacturing
properties and application of clay and carbon based polymer nanocomposites. It can be used as
handbook for undergraduate and post graduate courses (for example material science and
engineering polymer science and engineering rubber technology manufacturing engineering
etc.) as well as as reference book for research fellows and professionals.Polymer
nanocomposites have received outstanding importance in the present decade because of their
broad range of high-performance applications in various areas of engineering and technology due
to their special material properties.A great interest is dedicated to nanofiller based
polymeric materials which exhibit excellent enhancement in macroscopic material properties
(mechanical thermal dynamic mechanical electrical and many more) at very low filler contents
and can therefore be used for the development of next-generation composite materials.
