Restacking of 2D nanomaterials is often deemed to be detrimental to their applications. In contrast to this common notion, here we demonstrate that tightly packed stacked MoS2 exhibits a higher electrocatalytic activity for hydrogen evolution than the more loosely stacked ones.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) photogenerated by two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials provide a means of delivering persistent antibacterial activity in fluid media. Semiconducting molybdenum disulfide (MoS) nanosheets are an attractive option for exploiting such activity by using visible light. However, the tendency of MoS nanosheets in suspension to restack or otherwise aggregate remains a critical obstacle, as it results in the loss of the desired photoactivity.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) is a highly effective visible light photocatalyst when used as well-exfoliated 2D nanosheets. The ability to make effective use of these properties is significantly compromised by the challenge of preventing nanosheet aggregation or restacking in fluid suspensions. We report a strategy for immobilizing chemically exfoliated MoS as single- and few-layer nanosheets in porous crosslinked polymers prepared as microbeads.

With the advancement of nanotechnology, various types of nanomaterials have been integrated into electrochemical immunoelectrodes to enhance their performance. Among these, MXene stands out as a promising candidate due to its high electron transfer capacity and abundant surface chemical groups. However, the improvement in electrode performance is often hindered by the self-restacking and agglomeration of MXene.

Phoxim, extensively utilized in agriculture as an organothiophosphate insecticide, has the potential to cause neurotoxicity and pose human health hazards. In this study, an electrochemical enzyme biosensor based on TiC MXene/MoS@AuNPs/AChE was constructed for the sensitive detection of phoxim. The two-dimensional multilayer structure of TiC MXene provides a robust framework for MoS, leading to an expansion of the specific surface area and effectively preventing re-stacking of TiC MXene.
