Potential applications of advanced nano-composite materials for space payload

Their attractive mechanical, electrical & thermal properties, superior to state-of-art materials currently being used, results in improving the performance of polymer matrix composites. The challenge is to identify the required potential application of CNT composites for space use. Moreover, it needs space qualifications including material, process & product qualification. This review paper states a few potential applications of Nanofiller composites for space payload components. It also states challenges and requirements for space applications as well as space qualification.
