Environmental Applications of 2D Molybdenum Disulfide (MoS2) Nanosheets
Abstract
In an era of graphene-based nanomaterials as the most widely studied two-dimensional (2D) materials for enhanced performance of devices and systems in numerous environmental applications, molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) nanosheets stand out as a promising alternative 2D material with many excellent physicochemical, biological, and mechanical properties that differ significantly from those of graphene-based nanomaterials, potentially leading to new environmental phenomena and novel applications. This Critical Review presents the latest advances in the use of MoS 2 nanosheets for important water-related environmental applications such as contaminant adsorption, photocatalysis, membrane-based separation, sensing, and disinfection. Various methods for MoS 2 nanosheet synthesis are examined, and their suitability for different environmental applications is discussed. The unique structure and properties of MoS 2 nanosheets enabling exceptional environmental capabilities are compared with those of graphene-based nanomaterials. The environmental implications of MoS 2 nanosheets are emphasized, and research needs for future environmental applications of MoS 2 nanosheets are identified.

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.
