General description

Molybdenum disulfide suspension (MoS2) is a 2D single layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) in which hexagonal layers of molybdenum atoms are sandwiched between two layers of chalcogen atoms.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product belongs to Enabling category of greener alternatives thus aligns with "Design for energy efficency". Click here for more information.

Application

MoS2 can be used for a variety of applications such as ultrafast photonics, lithium ion batteries, and high speed flexible electronics.
Owing to the thickness dependent physical and chemical properties, the transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) based two dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have drawn significant attention recently. The atomically thin layers of MoS2 and WS2 represent important class of TMD based 2D-material and they find applications in photocatalysis, phtotovoltaics, gas sensing, lithium ion batteries, field effect transistors, spintronics etc.
