A nanocomposite is a multiphase solid material where one of the phases has one, two, or three dimensions of less than 100 nanometers (nm). These materials are designed to exhibit unique properties that are significantly different from their bulk counterparts. The incorporation of _nanoparticles_, _nanofibers_, or _nanotubes_ into a matrix material enhances certain characteristics such as mechanical strength, thermal stability, and electrical conductivity.
