Even though many techniques for the dispersion of nanoparticles into polymers are avaiable up to now, the enhancement of the material performance is still restricted due to inefficient homogenization and re-dispersion of available nanoparticle materials into the poylmers or masterbatches. Moreover, improvements are still required in terms of their purity, and costs.

In this study, a novel route no nanocomposite manufacturing is presented, based on the in-situ dispersion of nanoparticles into monomers and subsequent polymerisation. The capability of a novel method for nanocomposite manufacturing is demonstrated in examples specific to biomedical applications such as medical devices (implants) and a bionic clamping device for micro-parts.
