Size‐Dependent Enhancement of Electrocatalytic Oxygen‐Reduction and Hydrogen‐Evolution Performance of MoS2 Particles
Abstract
MoS 2 particles with different size distributions were prepared by simple ultrasonication of bulk MoS 2 followed by gradient centrifugation. Relative to the inert microscale MoS 2, nanoscale MoS 2 showed significantly improved catalytic activity toward the oxygen‐reduction reaction (ORR) and hydrogen‐evolution reaction (HER). The decrease in particle size was accompanied by an increase in catalytic activity. Particles with a size of around 2 nm exhibited the best dual ORR and HER performance with a four‐electron ORR process and an HER onset potential of −0.16 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE). This is the first investigation on the size‐dependent effect of the ORR activity of MoS 2, and a four‐electron transfer route was found. The exposed abundant Mo edges of the MoS 2 nanoparticles were proven to be responsible for the high ORR catalytic activity, whereas the origin of the improved HER activity of the nanoparticles was attributed to the plentiful exposed S edges. This newly discovered process provides a simple protocol to produce inexpensive highly active MoS 2 catalysts that could easily be scaled up. Hence, it opens up possibilities for wide applications of MoS 2 nanoparticles in the fields of energy conversion and storage.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
