Enhanced Catalytic Activities of Surfactant-Assisted Exfoliated WS2 Nanodots for Hydrogen Evolution

Zhao, Xue, Ma, Xiao, Sun, Jian, Li, Dehui, Yang, Xiurong·2016·ACS Nano

Abstract

WS2 nanodots were prepared by liquid-phase exfoliation of bulk WS2 crystals in surfactant aqueous solution with the aid of ultrasonication. Their behaviors on catalyzing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) were investigated after drop-casting them onto a glass carbon electrode. On the basis of the optical and electron characterizations, the nanodots were identified with a high concentration of octahedral phase of WS2 that showed better catalysis properties than the hexagonal WS2. From the polarization curve, the Tafel slope was estimated to be 51 mV per decade and the onset potential was 90 mV, indicating good catalytic performance of such nanodots. Our results suggest that surfactant-mediated exfoliation is an environmentally benign method to synthesize WS2 nanodots for improved catalyzing HER.

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.
