Fullerene has been acknowledged as a significant nanocarbon nanofiller enhancing the imperative polymer characteristics. Since, thermoplastic polymers constitute large group of polymeric materials, fullerene used reinforcement in these matrices mostly via non-covalent means. This state-of-the-art review article summarizes nanocomposites reinforced with nano-additives without involving any covalent interactions. Accordingly, polymer/fullerene interest have or physical interactions matrix-nanofiller such van der Waals forces, electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and aromatic stacking Number including polyamide, polyurethanes, block copolymers non-covalently physically molecules. Ensuing high performance exhibited improved microstructure, electrical, mechanical, thermal, other properties. Enhancements electrical properties thermoplastic/fullerene nanomaterials were found dependent upon contents, orientations, interfacial effects, processing. Consequently, polyamide/fullerene systems efficient to enhance glass transition up 260°C, addition optimum mechanical Polyurethane/fullerene performed better for tensile strength young’s modulus features 90 MPa 48 GPa, respectively. System based on poly (methyl methacrylate) resulted thermal degradation temperature range 501-633°C fine conductivity 1.3 Scm −1 . Using combination graphene (due synergistic effects) improve considerably 1.8–2.5 polystyrene copolymer system. However, attaining nanoparticle dispersion important affecting final nanocomposite processability essential characteristics filled can be influenced due aggregation. Hence, property enhancement potential linking between linked thermoplastics-fullerene portrayed this article. Research interacted revealed technical ranging from energy/electronic devices engineering biomedical sectors. useful guide field researchers towards development advanced using future applications.
