The 1st Edition of Multifunctional Carbon Nano-Onions Based Nanocomposites: Fundamentals, Design and Applications, written by Ayesha Kausar and published by Elsevier, provides a dedicated analysis of carbon nano-onion systems. The work focuses on the fundamental synthesis, structural organization, and functional characteristics required to design composite materials. It demonstrates how carbon nano-onions serve as functional additives within complex composite matrices.

The volume examines physical and performance characteristics, detailing microstructural, electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties of carbon nano-onions. Beyond structural metrics, the text explores biological and tribological properties resulting from matrix integration. Specific matrix classes evaluated include thermoplastic polymers, thermosetting networks, conjugated polymers, and rubber formulations.

Oriented toward academics, engineers, researchers, and materials science professionals, the volume bridges theoretical property analysis with industrial consideration. It reviews technical hurdles involved in scaling up processing methods while addressing the economic aspects of manufacturing carbon nano-onion nanocomposites.
