  Abstract: Abstract Tungsten disulphide (WS2) is one of the widely used intrinsic low friction materials, which is commonly used in the form of coating. WS2 offers very low coefficient of friction only in non humid conditions. Presence of humidity destroys this property and restricts its utility. Modifying the structure of WS2 by adding certain metals helps in overcoming this limitation and in addition improves the mechanical properties. Further, deposition technique and …
