A solution based polymer nanofiller composite processing method to improve mechanical, electrical, thermal and/or chemical properties. The solution based synthesis method may include the steps of surface functionalizing carbon nanomaterials and dissolving a polymer in a solvent. The functionalized carbon nanomaterials and dissolved polymer may be mixed until the mixture is homogenous. The mixture may be cured to form the polymer carbon nano-composite material, which provides significant improvements in modulus, hardness, strength, fracture toughness, wear, fatigue, creep, and damping performance.

A method for producing a rubber composition include a mixing step, a drying step, and a dispersion step. In the mixing step, an aqueous solution that includes at least one of oxycellulose fibers and cellulose nanofibers is mixed with rubber latex to obtain a first mixture. In the drying step, the first mixture is dried to obtain a second mixture. In the dispersion step, the second mixture is tight-milled using an open roll to obtain a rubber composition. The rubber composition does not include an aggregate that includes at least one of the oxycellulose fibers and the cellulose nanofibers, and has a diameter of 0.1 mm or more.

A fluororesin-metal oxide mixed dispersion (sol) with excellent operability and workability provided in a coating step is obtained by mixing aqueous dispersion of fluororesin particle, and particle sol of metal oxide with suitable pH value that is any one of titanium oxide, zirconium oxide, lanthanum oxide, neodymium oxide, cerium oxide, or tin oxide. Both the fluororesin particle and the metal oxide particle float and disperse without coagulation precipitation, gelation and solidification, and/or phase separation. The floating and dispersion state is stably maintained under room temperature storage for three days or more. Water contact angle of a solid product obtained by evaporation and scattering of a solvent from the fluororesin-metal oxide mixed dispersion is 130 degrees or less, and surface resistivity is 2.0×10.sup.12Ω/□ (ohm/square) or less.
