Abstract

High-performance thermoset nanocomposites are advanced materials with applications in various industries, including aerospace, electronics, and automotive. Recent research and development have been focused on both two-phase systems consisting of a thermoset matrix and nanoscale filler and multiscale composites consisting of a matrix, nanoscale filler, and microscale continuous fiber fabric. This chapter discusses the various techniques used for fabrication of both the two-phase and multiscale composites, with an emphasis on epoxy-based systems. We also focus on only three nanoparticles: clays, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and carbon nanofiber.
