Nanorods and nanocomposites are significant in the field of nanotechnology and materials science. Nanorods are nanostructures with rod-like shapes, typically ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers in diameter. They exhibit unique optical, electrical and mechanical properties due to their high aspect ratio and nanoscale dimensions. Applications of nanorods include photonics, electronics and medical imaging. Nanocomposites are materials composed of a matrix (such as polymers, metals or ceramics) embedded with nanoparticles, like nanorods, to enhance the composite's overall properties. The inclusion of nanoparticles can significantly improve the mechanical strength, thermal stability and conductivity of the base material. Nanocomposites are used in diverse fields, from aerospace and automotive industries to biomedical applications and electronics. The combination of nanorods and nanocomposites offers a pathway to creating advanced materials with desired properties for specific applications. The objective of this book is to give a general view of the different areas of nanotechnology and materials science, and its applications. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in the field of chemical engineering. Scientists and students actively engaged in this field will find this book full of crucial and unexplored concepts.
