Adsorption and reaction kinetics of small organic molecules on WS2 nanotubes: An ultra-high vacuum study

WS2 nanotubes embedded in PMMA nanofibers as energy absorptive material

“…Indeed, the properties of WS 2 nanotubes provide a new species of complex nanomaterial, which can be of value towards applications requiring lubricants, [10][11][12] catalysts, 13 polymer composites, 14,15 or phototransistors. 16 Combination of WS 2 1D inorganic nanotubes with organic 1D polymer nanofibers results in 1D organic-inorganic tube reinforced hybrid nanofibers, which features the electrical, optical and mechanical properties added by the individual 1D nanostructure components.…”

Non-Isothermal Cold-Crystallization Behavior and Kinetics of Poly(l-Lactic Acid)/WS2 Inorganic Nanotube Nanocomposites

“…In addition to protective materials, WS 2 nanotubes can also be employed in nanoelectronics, fuel cells, ultra-filtration membranes, and catalysts [14,15]. Their optical properties allow various other applications in fields such as nanolithography or photocatalysis [19]. Equally important, the cytotoxicity of the INT-WS 2 was evaluated positively in comparison to standard environmental particulate matter, demonstrating much lower cytotoxicity than other nanoparticles, such as silica or carbon black [20].…”

Bifunctional Carbon‐Dot‐WS2 Nanorods for Photothermal Therapy and Cell Imaging

“…[6] The desirable mechanical behaviour of WS 2 nanorods has been attributed to tight control over their synthetic parameters, which resultsi nh ighlyc rystalline nanostructures. Indeed, WS 2 nanostructures constitute new specieso f nanomaterials, which may be of value in diversea pplications, including lubrication, [7] catalysts, [8] and polymer composites. [9] WS 2 systems have been particularly touted as potentially useful platformsfor photodynamic and photothermal therapies due to their strong absorption in the near-infrared( NIR) re-gion.…”
