This book contains the essence of this emerging technology, the underlying science as well as the motivation behind the design of these structures and the future, particularly from the perspective of applications. Intended as a reference handbook for future scientists, it carries the basic science and the fundamental engineering principles that lead to the fabrication and property evaluation of nanocomposite materials in different areas of materials science and technology.

The authors give a detailed treatment of various aspects of nanocomposites. They describe numerous fabrication methods, like a thermal spray approach, or mechanical alloying. Plus, unsurprisingly, how to use carbon nanotubes as a basis for composites. Another large group of methods revolves around using polymers. Where carbon nanotubes can also be used.
Though the most interesting section to me was on using biological ideas as a template for nanocomposite construction. Intriguing, though still preliminary work.
The sheer diversity of approaches is a good sign of a promising new field. While the tone of the text is basically that of research, you may be able to design industrial productions from some of these ideas.
