Abstract

The aim of this paper and research is to obtain real and statistically relevant data that would be an indication of justification of the application of nanotechnology from the aspect of improving the functional properties: anti-corrosive, antifoaming and thermosetting when applying surface protection based on nano particles tungsten disulphide fullerene structure (WS2) (on metallic materials, coloured materials and alloys), as well as from the aspect of economic cost-effective use of new technologies in Factory of the Future (FoF) and Industry 4.0. The results of the corrosion test show that the WS2 nanofullerene protection is 72 times higher than the browning layer and is 1.5 times higher than the phosphate layer, with an economically acceptable price-quality ratio (2.5 to 8.8 times more expensive compared to the mentioned protection); since the nano agent, besides anti-corrosion protection, also has anti-wear, antifriction, thermosetting properties.
