Much research and development effort has emerged in addressing hybrid organic-inorganic systems; particular attention has been given to those systems in which nanofillers are dispersed in polymer matrices. This class of materials called polymer nanocomposites, shows unique value-added properties that are completely absent in neat matrices and conventional composites.
