{wiki=Nanocomposite}
Nanocomposites are materials that combine nanoparticles or nanoscale materials with a matrix material, which can be polymeric, ceramic, or metallic, to enhance certain properties of the composite. The incorporation of nanoscale materials—typically with dimensions ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers—can significantly improve the mechanical, electrical, thermal, and barrier properties of the resulting composite material compared to the properties of the individual components or conventional composites.
