Chuyên Đề Nanocomposite Science and Technology - P. M. Ajayan, L. S. Schadler, P. V. Braun

The field of nanocomposite materials has had the attention, imagination, and close scrutiny of scientists and engineers in recent years. This scrutiny results from the simple premise that using building blocks with dimensions in the nanosize range makes it possible to design and create new materials with unprecedented flexibility and improvements in their physical properties. This ability to tailor composites by using nanosize building blocks of heterogeneous chemical species has been demon-strated in several interdisciplinary fields.
