Controllable synthesis of hierarchical MoS nanotubes with ultra-uniform and superior storage potassium properties.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) is a promising nanomaterial which has been extensively investigated in photo-/electro-catalysis, sensors, and batteries due to its excellent physical/chemical properties. In this manuscript, MoS hierarchical nanotubes with hollow nanostructure are successfully synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method. SEM indicates that such MoS nanotubes have perfect uniformity while TEM demonstrates the hollow structure.
