Abstract
This study presents a flexible self-supporting C@MoSx@pCNF electrode, prepared via potassium electrochemical intercalation, which fragments MoS2 into smaller, amorphous nanoparticles. The amorphous MoSx shows enhanced active sites and superior hydrophilic/aerophobic properties. The electrode demonstrates excellent HER performance with a low overpotential of 51 mV at 10 mA cm−2 and a Tafel slope of 77 mV dec−1, offering a new strategy for improving MoS2 catalysis.
