Nanostructures of layered 2D materials have been proven one of the significant recent trends for visible-light-driven photocatalysis because of their unique morphology, effective optical adsorption, and rich active sites. Herein, we synthesized ultrathin-layered MoS nanoflowers and nanosheets with rich active sites by using a facile hydrothermal technique. The photocatalytic performance of the as-synthesized MoS nanoflowers (NF) and nanosheets (NS) were investigated for the photodegradation of MB (methylene blue), MG (malachite Green), and RhB (rhodamine B) dye under visible light irradiations. Ultrathin-layered nanoflowers showed faster degradation (96% in 150 min) in RhB under visible light irradiation, probably due to a large number of active sites and high available surface area. The kinetic study demonstrated that the first-order kinetic model best explained the process of photodegradation. The MoS nanoflowers catalysts has similar catalytic performance after four consecutive cyclic performances, demonstrating their good stability. The results showed that the MoS nanoflowers have outstanding visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity and could be an effective catalyst for industrial wastewater treatment.

This study presents a novel electrochemical immunosensor for the detection of pepsinogen I, a potential biomarker for gastric cancer, based on a unique PdAgPt/MoSnanocomposite. The key innovation lies in the synergistic combination of trimetallic PdAgPt nanoparticles with MoSnanoflowers, which has not been previously reported for pepsinogen I detection. This hybrid material demonstrates exceptional electron transfer properties and a significantly larger electroactive surface area compared to conventional materials.

Flexible supercapacitors offer significant potential for powering next-generation flexible electronics. However, the mechanical and electrochemical stability of flexible supercapacitors under different flexibility conditions is limited by the weak bonding between neighboring layers, posing a major obstacle to their practical application. In this paper, natural coniferous pulp cellulose was successfully modified with ethylenediamine and NiSe/Cell-NH/MoS cellulose flexible electrodes (NCMF) were fabricated by phase transfer and hydrothermal methods.

Water pollution resulting from Hg(II) ions has garnered significant global concern for public health. The flexibility and simplicity of design, cost savings, and ease of operation with adaptive designs provide adsorption with a considerable advantage over other processes. However, MoS is hydrophobic in nature, which limits its efficiency in the removal of Hg(II) ions from water.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries offer a high theoretical energy density but suffer from poor cycling stability and polysulfide shuttling, which limits their practical application. To address these challenges, we developed a PANI-modified MoS-NG composite, where MoS nanoflowers were uniformly grown on graphene oxide (GO) through PANI modification, resulting in an increased interlayer spacing of MoS. This expanded spacing exposed more active sites, enhancing polysulfide adsorption and catalytic conversion.
