Nanocomposite Manufacturing Technologies: Fundamental Principles, Mechanisms, and Processing provides the latest research in innovative manufacturing methods to produce nanocomposite materials for a range of applications. Nanocomposite material research has advanced rapidly in the past decade, revealing important insights into the nature of fiber reinforcement, unique properties and specific new-generation applications. This book draws the most important of these research findings into a single volume, together with the latest advances in relevant manufacturing technology, to provide a coherent resource helping students, researchers and industrial R&D staff to navigate this field.

Detailed descriptions of nanocomposite manufacturing processes help readers understand differences between them, also helping them choose which process or combination of processes will lead to the material that solves their design challenge.
