The lithium sulfur battery is an attractive energy storage device because of its high theoretical capacity and energy density, but its lifetime is seriously limited by the shuttle effect of polysulfides. Herein, a rational design of vertical MoS2 nanosheets anchored on conductive carbon nanotubes through Mo–O–C covalent coupling is proposed. In this composite, the strong chemical interaction ensures rapid charge transfer at interfaces, while the sulfur-deficient and metallic 1T phase-containing MoS2 enhances the affinity with polysulfides and accelerates the reaction kinetics of polysulfide conversion. Benefitting from these merits, the composite serves as a coating layer on the separator in the lithium sulfur battery, leading to the impressive electrochemical performance of the initial capacities of 1291 mA h g–1 at 0.5 C and 1330 mA h g–1 at 0.2 C. The battery also shows an enhanced cycling stability with a low capacity fading rate of 0.089% per cycle after 500 cycles at 0.5 C.

In this work, we designed the flower-like structure of 1T/2H-MoS2@α-Fe2O3 nanocomposites with high-efficiency microwave absorption, in which the α-Fe2O3 microdrums are attached to the surface of 1T/2H-MoS2 constituting a special flower-like morphology. During the synthesis process, the content of α-Fe2O3 microdrums plays a significant, constructive role in the dielectric properties and impedance matching characteristics of the 1T/2H-MoS2@α-Fe2O3 nanocomposites. The optimal reflection loss (RL) value of the flower-like nanocomposites can reach −61.18 dB at low frequency (6.52 GHz), while the RL value is also −56.98 dB at 4.43 GHz with a lower frequency. Furthermore, the frequency bandwidth below −10 dB was up to 4.68 GHz with an effective absorption frequency range of 13.32–18 GHz when the thickness was 1.82 mm. The results show that excellent electromagnetic wave absorption capabilities of the 1T/2H-MoS2@α-Fe2O3 nanocomposites in the low frequency range mainly benefit from the perfect coordination of multiphase MoS2 and α-Fe2O3 microdrums, which makes them achieve perfect impedance matching in the low frequency range. This provides a simple demonstration for the development of highly efficient electromagnetic wave absorption materials in the low frequency range.

Introducing nanomaterials into the polyamide layer of thin-film composite (TFC) membranes during interfacial polymerization process can customize the physicochemical properties of membranes and further enhance the membrane permeability without sacrificing selectivity. In this study, we prepared novel thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) nanofiltration membranes by varying the deposition density of hierarchical flower-like structured molybdenum disulfide (HF–MoS 2 ) with the assistance of vacuum filtration. Ascribed to the unique 3D hierarchical structure of HF–MoS 2 , a nano-sized striped polyamide film with a decreased thickness of 30–40 nm was formed, which increased the membrane effective filtration area and reduced the mass transfer resistance for water permeation. In addition, compared to the control TFC membrane, the TFN membranes possessed relatively looser polyamide layers with higher surface hydrophilicity and more negative surface charges. When the deposition density of HF–MoS 2 was 10 μg/cm 2 , the optimal performance of the TFN membranes was obtained, i.e., a water permeability of 18.4 L m −2 h −1 bar −1 and rejections above 98% for Na 2 SO 4 and MgSO 4 . Moreover, the optimal TFN membrane demonstrated an excellent separation performance and structure stability in the mixed salt solution and the long-term filtration test of 120 h, respectively. This work provides a novel approach to design high-performance TFN membranes applied for water/wastewater treatment.

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have unique planar structures and ultrathin thicknesses, but are prone to restacking and agglomerate due to the high surface energy. Building hierarchical structures is one of the effective ways to exploit their inherent properties and unique structural advantages. We unexpectedly found that the introduction of saturated NaCl solution to the hydrothermal synthesis of MoS 2 could significantly change its structure, resulting in the hierarchically structured nanosheet-assembled MoS 2 nanorods (R-MoS 2 ) with intercalated alkali ions. The formation process and synthesis mechanism of R-MoS 2 via NaNH 4 Mo 3 O 10 ·H 2 O reaction intermediate are systematically revealed by morphology and spectroscopy. Benefiting from this interesting hierarchical structure, the catalytic conversion of R-MoS 2 for p -chloronitrobenzene hydrogenation is significantly improved. Density functional theory calculation also demonstrates the intercalation of Na in MoS 2 can downshift the d -band center of Mo and favors the key final desorption process.

Here, we report the production of 3D-printed MoS 2 /Ni electrodes (3D-MoS 2 /Ni) with long-term stability and excellent performance by the selective laser melting (SLM) technique. As a cathode, the obtained 3D-MoS 2 /Ni could maintain a degradation rate above 94.0% for florfenicol (FLO) when repeatedly used 50 times in water. We also found that the removal rate of FLO by 3D-MoS 2 /Ni was about 12 times higher than that of 3D-printed pure Ni (3D-Ni), attributed to the improved accessibility of H*. In addition, the electrochemical characterization results showed that the electrochemically active surface area of the 3D-MoS 2 /Ni electrode is about 3-fold higher than that of the 3D-Ni electrode while the electrical resistance is 4 times lower. Based on tert -butanol suppression, electron paramagnetic resonance and triple quadrupole mass spectrometer experiments, a “dual path” mechanism and possible degradation pathway for the dechlorination of FLO by 3D-MoS 2 /Ni were proposed. Furthermore, we also investigated the impacts of the cathode potential and the initial pH of the solution on the degradation of FLO. Overall, this study reveals that the SLM 3D printing technique is a promising approach for the rapid fabrication of high-stability metal electrodes, which could have broad application in the control of water contaminants in the environmental field.

Transition metal compounds are often used as activators in advanced oxidation processes for the treatment of refractory organics. However, the problems of inter-particle agglomeration, metal ion leaching and difficulty in recycling frequently occurred, resulting in reduced activation performance and secondary pollution. In this study, biochar (BC) was prepared from agricultural waste pine cone shells, and then a self-synthesized heterogeneous CuFe 2 O 4 -MoS 2 @BC composite was prepared for the first time, which can be used as an activator of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the oxidative degradation of tetracycline (TC). Analysis techniques such as XRD, SEM, BET, FT-IR, Raman, XPS, and VSM indicated that the heterogeneous catalyst with good surface properties and catalytic stability has been successfully prepared. When different concentrations of TC were treated with 0.5 g/L CuFe 2 O 4 -MoS 2 @BC and 1 mmol/L PMS, the highest degradation rate could reach 99.66 % after 60 min. Under the interference of pH, common anions and humic acid in the water environment, the degradation system can still achieve high degradation efficiency, showing excellent anti-interference ability and practical applicability. The analysis of activation mechanism reveals that the three redox ion pairs Cu + /Cu 2+ , Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ and Mo 4+ /Mo 6+ simultaneously participated in the activation of PMS, realizing multi-path electron transfer . And MoS 2 played an excellent co-catalysis role in promoting the cycling of the valence states of the ions. A total of 24 intermediate products was detected in the degradation process using LC-MS technology, and the possible degradation pathways for TC degradation were proposed. The self-synthesized CuFe 2 O 4 -MoS 2 @BC composite with high catalytic performance, stability, recyclability and low ion leaching rate has broad application prospects in the treatment of tetracycline antibiotic wastewater by activated PMS.

Oily wastewater causes serious pollution to the environment and has aroused widespread concern. Hereby, a novel, sustainable and hydrophobic 3D polydimethylsiloxane modified MoS 2 @biomass-derived carbon composite (PMC) was fabricated by simple hydrothermal carbonization , self-assembly, freeze-drying, and hydrophobic modification methods based on natural renewable resources. With a water contact angle of 147.2°, the PMC exhibits excellent hydrophobic and oleophilic properties and further processes high adsorption capacity for various organic solvents and oils, and the maximum volume adsorption capacity reached up to 98.5% (v v −1 ). Moreover, the PMC can maintain a high oil-absorption capacity even after 10 cycles, showing good recoverability and reusability. In addition, the as-prepared PMC also can be applied in the removal of water-soluble organic pollutant . Benefiting from its facile fabrication and excellent properties, the developed PMC can be a promising candidate for broad environmental applications.

Herein, we assemble semi-metallic 1T′ phase MoS 2 on the surface Ti 3 C 2 MXene (1T′-MoS 2 /Ti 3 C 2 composite) by one-step hydrothermal method for nitrogen fixation. 1T′-MoS 2 /Ti 3 C 2 composites present a high ammonia yield rate of 31.96 µg h −1 mg −1 cat. at − 0.95 V vs. RHE and a Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 30.75% at − 0.7 V, which is much better than pure 1T′-MoS 2 and pure Ti 3 C 2 MXenes alone. Furthermore, the 1T′-MoS 2 /Ti 3 C 2 composites exhibit good selectivity and stability with no significant decrease in ammonia yield rate and FE. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that 1T′-MoS 2 /Ti 3 C 2 composite makes the activation and further reduction of *N 2 more thermodynamically favorable than pure 1T′-MoS 2 . 1 5 N isotopic labeling experiment confirms that nitrogen in produced ammonia originates from N 2 in the electrolyte.

CdS and MoS 2 are both promising photocatalytic materials for hydrogen production and lots of MoS 2 /CdS composites have been investigated. However, most of the previous work focused on relatively stable hexagonal CdS; researches on cubic CdS are still rare mainly due to its unstability. Then in this paper, a ternary composite MoS 2 /CN/CdS composed of cubic CdS, MoS 2 and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 , abbreviated as CN) was prepared by simple in situ precipitation of cubic CdS on MoS 2 /CN at room temperature. Based on a series of characterizations, the photocatalytic hydrogen production performance of MoS 2 /CN/CdS was studied. The results showed that when the amount of MoS 2 /CN was 10 wt.%, the activity reached 1253.2 μ mol h − 1 , about 110 times that of pure CdS. Especially, its stability was investigated in detail by cyclic hydrogen production tests, which indicated that although the activity decreased after the first cycle, it was stable in the following three cycles mainly due to the existence of CN. Namely, a relatively stable and high performance cubic CdS-based ternary composite was achieved. This research can provide some new insights into the design of cubic CdS-based photocatalysts.

Two-dimensional nanomaterials have exhibited considerable potential for gas sensing applications in recent years owing to their unique physical and chemical properties such as a large surface-to-volume ratio, abundant edge sites, versatile surface chemistry, etc. Herein, we demonstrate a two-dimensional Ti3C2TX MXene@TiO2/MoS2 nanocomposite gas sensor for ammonia detection at room temperature. MoS2 nanosheets are grown on an etched Ti3C2TX MXene surface by a hydrothermal method, and rectangular TiO2 particles are derived from Ti3C2TX MXene in the hydrothermal process. Meanwhile, nanocomposites with different Ti3C2TX MXene additions are also designed for gas sensing performance comparison. Such a novel hierarchical structure based gas sensor (MTM-0.2 sensor) exhibits fast response/recovery time and excellent long-term stability to ammonia. Meanwhile, outstanding selectivity to ammonia against triethylamine, trimethylamine, n-butanol, acetone, formaldehyde, and nitrogen dioxide at room temperature is also shown. The sensor shows 1.79-fold and 2.75-fold enhancement in the gas sensing response toward 100 ppm ammonia compared with the pristine Ti3C2TX MXene and MoS2 gas sensors, respectively. And its detection limit for ammonia is 500 ppb. The sensing mechanisms of the Ti3C2TX MXene@TiO2/MoS2 nanocomposites toward ammonia are attributed to the layered nanostructure, p–n heterojunction created at the interface of p-type Ti3C2TX MXene and n-type MoS2. Finally, density-functional theory (DFT) is performed to investigate the adsorption behavior and charge transfer of ammonia molecules on the surface of the nanocomposite. The synthesized Ti3C2TX MXene@TiO2/MoS2 nanocomposite can be regarded as a promising candidate for high-performance ammonia detection at room temperature.

Co-based heterogeneous catalysts exhibit relatively high performance on peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation for antibiotic pollution control in water. But the aggregation and loss of active components limit their expanded application. In this study, a 3D rose-like MoS 2 was designed and synthesized to anchor Co in its special lamellar structure and achieve its high dispersion. 98.9% of tetracycline (TC) was removed within 60 min with a mineralization rate of 50.5% under neutral condition. The accelerated valence cycle between Co 2+ and Co 3+ was the key to PMS activation and TC degradation. And the lamellar structure of MoS 2 endowed the catalyst with better stability and inhibited Co leaching. The influences of common anions (Cl − , HCO 3 − , H 2 PO 4 − , and SO 4 2− ) and humic acid in aqueous solution on TC degradation were systematically investigated. The catalytic mechanism of PMS activation and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) over Co@MoS 2 were deeply investigated. The reduced biotoxicity of the intermediates indicated the potential of Co@MoS 2 /PMS system for the control of environmental risks caused by TC. This work provided a new insight for the design of metal-doped heterogeneous catalyst with high stability and a new direction for the remediation of antibiotic contamination in water.

Hydrodesulfurization (HDS) is an effective way to reduce sulfur content in oil for the enforcement of more stringent environmental regulations. MoS 2 has been widely used as an effective component for catalyzing HDS, and needs to be extensively studied in depth. Herein, MoS 2 nanoflowers with the symbiosis of 1T-2H phases in the basal planes and coexistence of S and Mo vacancies are prepared via the assembly of many nanosheets by a one-pot solvothermal method. The morphology, crystal phase structure and defects of these 1T-2H MoS 2 samples were well characterized. The 1T/2H ratio and the state of vacancies were effectively tuned by changing the solvothermal conditions. Active and stable 1T-2H mixed MoS 2 nanoflowers with high content of 1T phase and moderate S and Mo vacancies were obtained by the regulation of oxalic acid in the mixture of ethanol and water. In the HDS of dibenzothiophene at 300 °C and 4 MPa, the optimal catalyst of MoS 2 -water–ethanol-OA exhibited a substrate conversion of 89.3% in 10 h. Moreover, the activity of MoS 2 -water–ethanol-OA was well retained without any decrease in the recycling experiment.
