Short description The field of nanocomposites has the attention and imagination of scientists and engineers in recent years. The reason for this is based on the simple premise that by using building blocks with dimensions in the nanosize region, it is possible to design and create new materials with unprecedented flexibility and improvements in their physical properties. Composites using nanosize building blocks of heterogeneous chemical species have been shown in several interdisciplinary fields.
