Overview

Randomized trial explores electrocatalytic properties in MoS2 materials, highlighting disorder effects on activity and selectivity.

Key Points

  • This research investigates how structural disorder in MoS2 influences its electrocatalytic properties for hydrogen evolution and nitrate reduction.
  • Examined MoS2 materials with varying levels of interlayer and in-layer disorder.
  • Correlated structural features with catalytic activity under acidic, neutral, and alkaline conditions.
  • Analyzed hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and nitrate reduction performance.
  • Interlayer disorder increases HER activity in neutral and alkaline conditions, but not in acidic.
  • In-layer disorder enhances HER specifically under acidic conditions.
  • High levels of in-layer disorder improve nitrate reduction activity; interlayer disorder affects selectivity towards ammonia formation.
