Synthesis of fullerene-like MoS2 nanoparticles and their tribological behavior

Controlled Doping of MS2 (M=W, Mo) Nanotubes and Fullerene‐like Nanoparticles

“…The friction coefficient of PAO-4 with 1 % IF-MoS 2 was found to be between 0.04 and 0.05, which is compatible with previous results. [14] Remarkably, the friction coefficient of the oil with 1 wt % Re:IF-MoS 2 (0.12 and 0.71 at %) gradually dropped to 0.014-0.016 and the surface roughness parameter decreased from 1. 8 The low friction, smooth surface, and the lengthy period of friction in pure oil after the friction test in the oil + Redoped IF indicate the formation of an easy shear film at the contact surface.…”

MoS2 and WS2 Analogues of Graphene

“…Following the discovery of fullerenes [1] in 1985, it was soon recognized that inorganic layered materials such as MoS 2 and WS 2 can also form fullerene-like structures. [2] After the discovery of carbon nanotubes, [3] inorganic nanotubes analogous to carbon nanotubes were prepared and characterized, nanotubes of MoS 2 and WS 2 being archetypal examples.…”

“…[2] After the discovery of carbon nanotubes, [3] inorganic nanotubes analogous to carbon nanotubes were prepared and characterized, nanotubes of MoS 2 and WS 2 being archetypal examples. [4] With the discovery and characterization of graphene, that is, two-dimensional nanocarbon, which has created great interest in last few years, [5] it would seem natural to explore the synthesis of graphene analogues of layered inorganic materials such as dichalcogenides of molybdenum and tungsten.…”
