Photooxidation of Organic Chemicals Catalyzed by Nanoscale MoS2
Abstract
We describe experiments that explore the use of nanosize MoS 2 semiconductors for catalyzing the photooxidation of an organic chemical, phenol. The band gap of nanoscale MoS 2 can be tuned across the visible spectrum and we show that d = 4.5 nm MoS 2 which has an absorbance edge near 550 nm photooxidizes phenol using only visible light (>450 nm) while smaller band gap d = 8−10 nm MoS 2 or wide band gap Degussa P-25 TiO 2 do not. The possibility of increasing the rate of photooxidation of phenol by deposition of nanoclusters of MoS 2 on bulk semiconductor powders is investigated. It is shown that small amounts (<5 wt %) of nanoscale MoS 2 deposited onto TiO 2 can lead to significant (∼2-fold) enhancements of phenol destruction rates compared to TiO 2 by itself.

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.
