Abstract
Graphene and its derivatives are of great interest in heterogeneous catalysis because of their unique structural and electronic properties.[1]Like graphene and other two-dimensional nanomaterials,exfoliated transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs)nanosheets have recently attracted tremendous interest. In particular, exfoliated molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) as the archetypal example of TMDs shows unique physical and chemical properties that not seen in their bulk crystals. It has showed promising applications in heterogeneous catalysis. Here, we introduce some of our recent advances in the preparation of exfoliated MoS2and their performances in heterogeneous catalysis.[2-7]
