RESUMO

The development and the applications of new properties of already known materials and new materials properly said, has been researchers main objective. We are in a phase of scientific and technological knowledge where the nanotechnology is becoming present in all science and technology fields. Thus, the researchers are investigating ways to resort to the nanotechnology on a large scale, determining its characteristics in order to use them properly, providing new types of materials. One of the R&D fields in nanotechnology is focused on polymeric materials, in nanocomposites, which are present in academic and industrial activities. This study had as main objective to acquire the knowledge of how the nanotechnology is present in polymeric materials, resorting to researchers/ specialists in the field, to know which are the future possibilities of these new materials in the society, as a whole, through technological prospection. However, in order to obtain a prospection of the future in this determined case, it is necessary to use the appropriate tools, in order to obtain an answer which possibilities are close to the real ones. It was used the Delphi Method, which uses the specialists knowledge in a specific area, in order to obtain data through questionnaires that may represent future scenarios, in an ambit of subjective probabilities, whose answers can be treated by mathematical methods.
