Nanotechnology offers fundamentally new capabilities to architect a broad array of novel materials, composites and structures on a molecular scale. It is potentially capable of redefining the methods used for developing lighter, stronger, high-performance structures and processes with unique and nontraditional properties. This review summarizes different classes of nanocarbon-based polymer composites and their applications. Also, it highlights different ways to create smaller, cheaper, lighter and faster devices using nanocarbon-based polymer composites. The potential applications of such materials are in the fields of membrane, aviation, electronics, polymer composites, as well as the marine and transport industries. A detailed description of nanocarbon-based composite materials manufactured from PE, PP, PS, PS, PVC, PPS, ABS, PMMA, nitrile rubber, etc. is also reviewed. Some of the major applications of carbon-based polymer nanocomposites are in the tyre industry, semiconductors, and many more, which has brought about the new, developing and exciting research field called nanoscience.
