Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Multidisciplinary Physical Sciences Science & Technology
MoS2 nanospheres were successfully prepared via a solvothermal process using 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([EMIM]Br) in a mixed solvent of DMF-water. A probable [EMIM] Br aggregation in different mixed solvents and the formation mechanism of the MoS2 nanospheres are presented. The MoS2 nanospheres delivered high catalytic activity in hydrocracking of diphenylmethane.
