Abstract :
It is a big challenge for material researchers to synthesis nanoparticles and nanocomposites with desire configurations in view of subtending all physical properties. Peoples from different fields show keen interest in making nanocomposites because of huge applications in all branches of science and technology. It was observed that nanocomposites are very useful for fabricating energy storage devices because of low ac conductivity, dielectric constant and high tangent loss. The novel nanocomposites can be used as biomaterials, self-cleansing materials and shape memory or smart materials.
