Abstract

Nanotechnology has garnered significant attention for providing innovative solutions across various fields, including fire safety, agriculture, corrosion protection, and environmental management. In the context of fire safety, nanostructured materials play a critical role, while in agriculture, nanoagrochemicals enhance crop protection and improve productivity. Similarly, nanoparticles used in corrosion protection significantly prolong the lifespan of materials. From an environmental perspective, these nanomaterials present eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives. Additionally, tungsten oxide (WO₃) has emerged as a key material in several industrial and technological applications, including diagnostic tools, protective equipment in healthcare, photocatalysis, electrochromic devices, energy storage, and radiation protection. The research also highlights the selective cytotoxicity of tungsten oxide-based composites, such as tungsten oxide-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), tungsten oxidepolyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and tungsten oxide-thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), particularly in targeting cancer cells, along with their radioactive properties. The process through which these materials are transformed into fibers what it is also discussed in detail.
