T he discovery of graphene has aroused enormous
scientific interests in fabrication and application of new
two-dimensional (2D) materials in the past decade. As a
typical layered graphene-like material, molybdenum disulfide
(MoS2) shows the unique properties exhibiting great potential
applications in thefieldof electronicandoptoelectronicdevices.
Despite the enormous scientific interests aroused by MoS2,
little attention has been focused on the progress in fabrication,
properties, and applications of MoS2/polymer nanocomposites
up to now. In thiswork, exfoliatedmolybdenumdisulfide (MoS2)
modified by a metal oxide (MoS2/MxOy) and carbon nanotubes
(MoS2/CNT) was prepared and characterized by atomic force
microscopy (AFM), Raman spectroscopy and transmission
electron microscopy (TEM). The samples were used in polymer
composite preparation by using an extruder blending method.
Nanocomposites of polymer with nanofillers were obtained.
The morphology, thermal properties, fire resistant properties
and thermal conductivity of the nanocomposites were studied.
We observed good flame retardance for all composites. All
composites with exfoliated MoS2 exhibit greater potential for
preparation of smart and functional nanomaterials with good
thermal and fire resistant properties.
