Summary:

The intention of this book is to provide an updated view of the synthesis, characterization and applications of different kinds of nanocomposites. It includes 9 review chapters and 8 research chapters. The review articles introduce various nanocomposites like polymer-based nanocomposite (polymer-based carbonaceous nanocomposites, chitosan-quantum dots nanocomposites and chitosan-based inorganic nanocomposites), UV-cured nanocomposite coatings, carbon dots nanocomposites, layered double hydroxides/organo nanocomposites, catalytic membranes loaded with nanocomposite materials and block copolymer
