Nanoparticles used in the composites depended on the required applications. Carbon, silica, alumina, ceramic, CaCo3 ... etc. are some examples of the most relevant nanoparticles used in the nanocomposite materials.
Common types of nanocomposites include polymer nanocomposites, metal matrix nanocomposites, and ceramic matrix nanocomposites. Polymer nanocomposites involve the incorporation of nanoparticles into polymers, while metal and ceramic matrix nanocomposites integrate nanoparticles into metal or ceramic matrices, respectively. These materials often exhibit enhanced mechanical, thermal, or electrical properties due to the unique characteristics of nanoparticles.
