MOLYBDENUM SULFIDE NANOSHEETS DECORATED WITH IRON PHOSPHIDE FOR HYDROGEN GAS EVOLUTION

摘要

An electrocatalyst comprising molybdenum disulfide nanosheets with dispersed iron phosphide nanoparticles is described. The molybdenum disulfide nanosheets may have an average length in a range of 300 nm-1 μm and the iron phosphide nanoparticles may have an average diameter in a range of 5-20 nm. The electrocatalyst may have an electroactive surface area in a range of 10-50 mF·cm⁻² when deposited on a working electrode for use in a hydrogen evolution reaction.
