Hydrothermal Synthesis of 1T-MoS<sub>2</sub>/Pelagic Clay Composite and Its Application in the Catalytic Reduction of 4-Nitrophenol
Pelagic clay is an emerging marine resource with strong hydrophilicity, fine particles and a large specific surface area. In this work, a 1T-MoS<sub>2</sub>/pelagic clay composite was fabricated by hydrothermal synthesis. In the composite, 1T-MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheets are ev...
