Effect of tungsten disulfide nanotubes on crystallization of polylactide under uniaxial deformation and annealing

Abstract Tungsten disulfide (WS2) nanotubes (NTs) are examined here as a filler for polylactide (PLA) for their ability to accelerate PLA crystallization and for their promising biocompatibility in relevant to biomedical applications of PLA-WS2 nanocomposites. In this work, we have studied the struc...
