Ceramic nanocomposites

Ceramic nanocomposites demonstrate a number of useful characteristics such as magnetic properties, high thermal resistance, and improved hardness, strength, and creep resistance compared to conventional ceramic matrix composites.  This makes them promising materials for a wide range of applications. Contributors give extensive coverage of the types, properties and structure of ceramic nanocomposites. They then look at the design and manufacturing processes, testing methods and applications in industries, such as biomedical, energy and electronics.
