Certain Transition Metal Dichalcogenides Can Be Exfoliated in Strong Acids
【China Molybdenum Industry News Network】
"From the synthesis point of view, we have shown that certain transition metal dichalcogenides can be exfoliated in strong acids," Singh said. "This method should allow synthesis of gram quantities of few-layer-thick molybdenum disulfide sheets, which is very crucial for applications such as flexible batteries, supercapacitors, and polymer composites. For such applications, TMD flakes that are a few atoms thick are sufficient. Very high-quality single-layer flakes are not a necessity."
The researchers are working to commercialize the technology, with assistance from the university's Institute ofCommercialization. They also are exploring lithium and sodium storage in other nanomaterials.
Other Kansas State University researchers involved in the project include Lamuel David, lead author on the paper and a doctoral student in mechanical engineering, India, and Romil Bhandavat, recent doctoral graduate.
