Abstract
Methods for preparing low resistivity nanocomposite layers that simultaneously offer optical clarity, wear resistance and superior functional performance. Nanofillers and a substance having a polymer are mixed. Both low-loaded and highly-loaded nanocomposites are included. Nanoscale coated and un-coated fillers may be used. Nanocomposite films may be coated on substrates.

A method for preparing an optically clear nanocomposite layer with resistivity less than 4.5×105 ohm·cm comprising:
- providing nanofillers;
- providing a liquid polymer matrix;
- mixing the nanofillers with the liquid polymer matrix below a loading of 80% by volume thereby producing nanocomposite;
- and
- wherein the nanocomposite has a transparency to light that differs by more than 20% as compared with the transparency to light exhibited by a composite material of similar composition with filler particles having a domain size of at least one micron.
