一步法水热法合成MoS2/C复合微球

MoS2/C composite microspheres have been successfully synthesized via one-pot hydrothermal route using sodium molybdate, sulfocarbamide and glucose as precursors. The structure and morphology of the MoS2/C samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that the nanowhisker-like MoS2 could combine with the carbonaceous produced by dehydration of glucose to form uniform MoS2/C composite microspheres under appropriate hydrothermal conditions. After their annealing at 800篊 for 2 h, the MoS2/C composite microspheres were still amorphous and retained the microspheres morphology. A possible formation mechanism of MoS2/C composite microspheres under hydrothermal conditions was investigated. Electrochemical measurements showed that the annealed MoS2/C composite microspheres exhibited the high capacity and excellent cycling durability of the electrochemical lithiation/delithiation.
