Abstract: In this paper, we describe a facile and rapid method for preparing In2S3 nanoparticles via ultrasound dispersion. This method allows us to prepare In2S3 nanoparticles from bulk indium and sulfur with ease and without using expensive agents and in a short time. The possible growing mechanism of the In2S3 nanoparticles was presented. In addition, we provide detailed characterizations including TEM, XRD, TG-DTA, and XPS to study the shape, composition and structure of In2S3 nanoparticles. We also studied the tribology property of In2S3 nanoparticles made using this novel recipe.
