Abstract

In this study, a novel, simple, high yield, and scalable method is proposed to synthesize highly porous MoS2/graphene oxide (M−GO) nanocomposites by reacting the GO and co-exfoliation of bulky MoS2 in the presence of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) under different condition of ultrasonication. Also, the...
