Introduction 330 $a Materials development has reached a point where it is difficult for a single material to satisfy the needs of sophisticated applications in the modern world. Nanocomposite films and coatings achieve much more than the simple addition of the constitutents - the law of summation fails to work in the nano-world. This book encompasses three major parts of the development of nanocomposite films and coatings: the first focuses on processing and properties, the second concentrates on mechanical performance, and the third deals with functional performance, including wide application areas ranging fro 606 $aThin films 606 $aNanostructured materials 615 0$aThin films. 615 0$aNanostructured materials. 676 $a621.38152 701 $aZhang$b Sam$0920555 701 $aAli$b Nasar$01822710 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911006627203321 996 $aNanocomposite thin films and coatings$94389054 997 $aUNINA
