Electrochemical behavior of lithium intercalated in a molybdenum disulfide-crown ether nanocomposite

In situ synthesis of a MoS2/CoOOH hybrid by a facile wet chemical method and the catalytic oxidation of CO in epoxy resin during decomposition

“…Hexagonal MoS 2 is a scientically important material, which is formed of two-dimensional (2D) layers held together by van der Waals forces similar to graphite. 1 Due to its potential applications in the areas of catalysis, 2,3 lubrication, 4,5 electrochemistry 6,7 as well as in intercalation chemistry where it serves as a host material, 8,9 it has attracted an enormous amount of interest recently.…”

An ion-selective crown ether covalently grafted onto chemically exfoliated MoS2 as a biological fluid sensor

“…33 In the field of transition metal dichalcogenides, to the best of our knowledge, crown ethers have been only utilized as Li ions-containing intercalants within MoS2 exfoliated nanosheets serving as potential electrochemical switches. 34,35 The selective recognition of cations by tuning the size of the oxygencontaining macrocycles offers the advantage of developing responsive electrochemical platforms based on the host-guest interactions, arising from the stabilization of the cations within the macrocyclic polyether tether. Furthermore, it is known that B15C5 efficiently hosts sodium cations with high binding affinity.…”
