Low-cost, highly efficient catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are very important to advance energy economy based on clean hydrogen gas. Intensive studies on two-dimensional molybdenum disulfides (2D MoS2) have been conducted due to their remarkable catalytic properties. However, most of the reported syntheses are time consuming, complicated and less efficient. The present work demonstrates the production of MoS2/graphene catalyst via an ultra-fast (60 s) microwave-initiated approach. High specific surface area and conductivity of graphene delivers a favorable conductive network for the growth of MoS2 nanosheets, along with rapid charge transfer kinetics. As-produced MoS2/graphene nanocomposites exhibit superior electrocatalytic activity for the HER in acidic medium, with a low onset potential of 62 mV, high cathodic currents and a Tafel slope of 43.3 mV/decade. Beyond excellent catalytic activity, MoS2/graphene reveals long cycling stability with a very high cathodic current density of around 1000 mA cm−2 at an overpotential of 250 mV. Moreover, the MoS2/graphene-catalyst exhibits outstanding HER activities in a temperature range of 30 to 120°C with low activation energy of 36.51 kJ mol−1, providing the opportunity of practical scalable processing.

高效的MoS 2 /石墨烯纳米复合材料用于放氢反应的微波方法

低成本,高效的氢气析出反应(HER)催化剂对于提高基于清洁氢气的能源经济性非常重要。由于二维二硫化钼(2D MoS 2)具有卓越的催化性能,因此对其进行了深入研究。然而,大多数报道的合成是费时,复杂且效率较低的。本工作证明了通过超快(60 s)微波引发的方法生产MoS 2 /石墨烯催化剂。石墨烯的高比表面积和电导率为MoS 2纳米片的生长提供了良好的导电网络,并具有快速的电荷转移动力学。成品MoS 2石墨烯/石墨烯纳米复合材料在酸性介质中对HER表现出优异的电催化活性,起始电位低至62 mV,阴极电流高,Tafel斜率为43.3 mV /十倍。MoS 2 /石墨烯不仅具有出色的催化活性,而且在250 mV的超电势下显示出长的循环稳定性,并具有约1000 mA cm -2的非常高的阴极电流密度。而且,MoS 2 /石墨烯催化剂在30至120℃的温度范围内表现出优异的HER活性,并且具有36.51kJ mol -1的低活化能,从而提供了实用的可扩展处理的机会。
