Abstract
Application and usage of lightweight materials growing rapidly in every field of industries and engineering applications. The use of nano fillers with fibers in polymer composites has a significant effect on the performance of developed composite. This paper deals with the detailed introduction about nanofillers and their application in polymer composites. Incorporation of nano-fillers with reinforcement or matrix will imparts a substantial effect on the mechanical characteristics as well as thermal stability of the composites. Special attention is made to improve the mechanical characteristics of the nano-filler reinforced polymer composites. Better interfacial bonding between matrix and reinforcement due to application of nanofillers results in better mechanical properties mentioned in this study. Tensile, flexural, impact properties and improved frictional properties of nanocompositesdetermine their application in various engineering applications, and this study illustrates how these properties range from one nano-filler to another. In this article, use of nanocomposites and their effect on different industries, such as automotive, biotechnologies, sports and aerospace applications, etc has been discussed.
