High photocatalysis of hydrothermally-synthesized flower-like 2H-MoS2 microspheres for water purification
摘要
Hydrothermally-synthesized flower-like 2H-MoS2 microspheres with a hexagonal phase exhibit excellent photocatalytic activity for water purification, achieving a maximum degradation rate of 95% for Rhodamine B in 150 min and 98% for methylene blue in 180 min. This high degradation efficiency can be attributed to the substantial enhancement in specific surface area provided by the unique flower-like microstructure. With the advantages of a simple synthesis route, high visible-light photocatalytic activity, and low cost, flower-like 2H-MoS2 microspheres demonstrate strong potential for environmental water purification applications.
