Problems solved by technology

However, this method also has disadvantages such as low conversion rate, high grade requirements for ore raw materials, complicated process, large pollution, and high cost.
In addition, it is difficult to effectively control the structure and morphology of molybdenum disulfide products using the above two methods, resulting in their performance not being guaranteed
[0003] In recent years, researchers have proposed a variety of nano-MoS 2 Preparation methods, including chemical vapor deposition (CVD), hydrothermal method, organic-inorganic hybrid conversion method, etc. Although the above methods have their own advantages, there is still a long way to go before their large-scale industrial application

Abstract

The invention discloses an electrochemical method for preparing a high-purity molybdenum disulfide nanosheet from molybdenite. The purity of the obtained molybdenum disulfide nanosheet reaches 99.0% or above, and the average thickness of the nanosheet is only 10-30 nm. The method comprises the following preparation steps: (1) putting alkali metal chlorate into a nickel reaction container, melting at high temperature, and then reducing the temperature of molten salt to a reaction temperature; (2) adding molybdenite into a nickel container and immersing themolybdenite in molten salt by taking the nickel container as a cathode and the molten salt as electrolyte, and mounting an anode for electrolysis; and (3) after the electrolysis is finished, taking out the anode, cooling to room temperature in an inert atmosphere, collecting anode surface sediments, and washing and drying to obtain the high-purity molybdenum disulfide powder. The method is simple to operate, clean in process and low in preparation cost; and the obtained molybdenum disulfide nanosheet is stable in property, and shows relatively high lithium storage performance and electrochemical stability when being used as a lithium ion battery negative electrode material.
