Abstract : Nanocomposites: modern material are multiphase martial composed of one or many phases of less than 100 nm dimensions. Polymer –matrix nanocomposites are composed of polymer matrix reinforced with nanoscale fillers. Chitosan is the most abundant biopolymer after cellulose, extracted from chitin present in insect exoskeleton fungal cell wall, and crustaceans. Chitosan gains the attention of many researcher because of its unique properties like biodegradable, plant growth regulator, biocompatible, antimicrobial agent and nontoxic. Chitosan nanocomposites combine the benefits of chitosan with enhanced properties provided by nanoparticles making them versatile and high performing material. Chitosan nanocomposites has numerous application in industries, biomedical, food packaging, and environmental remediation. This review focuses on the Chitosan nanocomposites synthesis, their characterization and applications in various fields.

Keywords : Nanocomposites, Chitosan, TGA, Antimicrobial Activity, Polymer.
