Applications of WS2(MoS2) inorganic nanotubes and fullerene-like nanoparticles for solid lubrication and for structural nanocomposites

Rapoport, L., Fleischer, N., Tenne, R.·2005·Journal of Materials Chemistry

Abstract

Nanoparticles of WS2 and MoS2 with a closed cage structure (fullerene-like) that are termed IF phases are synthesized in large amounts in a pure form. These nanoparticles were shown to play a favorable role as solid lubricants under severe conditions where fluids are unable to support the heavy load and are squeezed away from the contact area. Various tribological scenarios are presented for these superior solid lubricants, demonstrating the large scale potential for applications of these materials. The mechanism of action of these solid lubricants is briefly discussed. Various other potential applications of IF phases for nanocomposites with high impact resistance; in rechargeable batteries and in optical devices are discussed in short.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
