Tungsten disulfide inorganic multiwall nanotubes (INT) are provided as a high chemical purity powder (>99%). INTs can be easily dispersed in a variety of media including polymers, solvents, and epoxy resins. They are needle-like particles with a large aspect ratio showing high crystallinity. INTs exhibit excellent shock absorbing properties and impact resistance. INTs are semi-conducting materials.
Applications
The INTs can be used to strengthen composite materials simultaneously improving their elastic and thermal properties. INTs increase the wear resistance of host matrices. They also reinforce polymer microfilaments and nanofibers. Production INTs are made by a catalyst-free high-yield process via a solid-gas reaction.
Enjoy the nano-effect
You can improve your composite products by using much lower treat rates and achieve greater advantages than with other fillers. Less than 1% INTs enables you to design and produce new materials with properties improved by an order of magnitude. This creates new business opportunities for you!
