What is MoS2

Molybdenum disulfide [molybdenum(IV) sulfide, MoS2] is an inorganic compound in the mineral molybdenite. Its crystals have a layered hexagonal structure (shown) similar to graphite. In 1957, Ronald E. Bell and Robert E. Herbert at the now-defunct Climax Molybdenum Company of Michigan (Ann Arbor) prepared what was then a new rhombohedral crystalline. Like most mineral salts, MoS2 has a high melting point but begins to sublime at a relatively low 450 ºC. This property is useful for purifying the c

Molybdenum Disulfide Applications

What is Molybdenum disulfide?Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), also known as moly, is an inorganic metallic compound made of molybdenum and sulfur. This compound occurs in a natural state as mineral molybdenite (the principal ore of molybdenum) and has a crystal lattice-layered structure. Weak bonds in atoms in different layers and strong bonds connecting atoms in single layers allow the plate to slide over one another. Similar materials include tungsten disulfide, boron nitride, lead iodide, silver

Processing of Monolayer MoS2

What is Molybdenum disulfide?Molybdenum disulfide belongs to a class of materials called 'transition metal dichalcogenides' (TMDCs). Materials in this class have the chemical formula MX2, where M is a transition metal atom (groups 4-12 in the periodic table), and X is a chalcogen (group 16). The chemical formula of molybdenum disulfide is MoS2. The crystal structure of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) forms a hexagonal plane of S atoms on either side of a hexagonal plane of Mo atoms. These triple pla

Exfoliated Molybdenum disulfide flakes

What is Molybdenum disulfide?MoS2 is employed as a cocatalyst for desulfurization in petrochemistry, for example, hydrodesulfurization. The effectiveness of the MoS2 catalysts is enhanced by doping with small amounts of cobalt or nickel. The intimate mixture of these sulfides is supported by alumina. Such catalysts are generated in situ by treating molybdate cobalt or nickel-impregnated alumina with H2S or an equivalent reagent. Catalysis does not occur at the crystallites' regular sheet-like re

Valleytronics of Molybdenum disulfide

Due to the lack of spatial inversion symmetry, odd-layer MoS2 is a promising material for valleytronics because both the CBM and VBM have two energy-degenerate valleys at the corners of the first Brillouin zone, providing an exciting opportunity to store the information of 0s and 1s at different discrete values of the crystal momentum. The Berry curvature is even under spatial inversion (P) and odd under time reversal (T); the valley Hall effect cannot survive when both P and T symmetries are pr

Microelectronics of Molybdenum disulfide

As in graphene, the layered structures of MoS2 and other transition metal dichalcogenides exhibit electronic and optical properties that can differ from those in bulk. Bulk MoS2 has an indirect band gap of 1.2 eV, while MoS2 monolayers have a direct 1.8 eV electronic bandgap, supporting switchable transistors and photodetectors. MoS2 nanoflakes can be used for solution-processed fabrication of layered memristive and memcapacitive devices through engineering a MoOx/MoS2 heterostructure sandwiched

Lubricant of Molybdenum disulfide

Due to weak van der Waals interactions between the sheets of sulfide atoms, MoS2 has a low coefficient of friction. MoS2 in particle sizes of 1–100 µm is a common dry lubricant. Few alternatives exist that confer high lubricity and stability at up to 350 °C in oxidizing environments. Sliding friction tests of MoS2 using a pin-on-disc tester at low loads (0.1–2 N) give friction coefficient values of

Mechanical properties of Molybdenum disulfide

MoS2 excels as a lubricating material (see below) due to its layered structure and low coefficient of friction. Interlayer sliding dissipates energy when shear stress is applied to the material. Extensive work has been performed to characterize the coefficient of friction and shear strength of MoS2 in various atmospheres. The shear strength of MoS2 increases as the coefficient of friction increases. This property is called superlubricity. At ambient conditions, the coefficient of friction for Mo

The action of molybdenum disulfide

Molybdenum disulfide coating has a low friction coefficient and low hardness. Molybdenum disulfide grease is an extreme pressure grease made of molybdenum disulfide refining material with anti-oxidation, anti-rust and other additives. It has good waterproof performance and anti-rust performance. The biggest advantage is that the extreme pressure anti-wear performance is very prominent, mainly used for impact load heavy parts, and can effectively prevent mechanical parts from biting and sintering

What is the action of molybdenum disulfide in oil

The role of molybdenum disulfide in oil is to improve the anti-wear performance of oil, and reduce the use of engine wear and abnormal, because molybdenum, this metal element hardness, is relatively high. Molybdenum disulfide is a solid surface lubricant; its main role is wear-resistant, lubricating, and anti-corrosion. The temperature range is generally -200°C to 400°C, vacuum to 1090°C to show low friction, 400°C in the atmosphere above will be rapid oxidation into molybdenum trisulfide (MOS).
