Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) ultrathin nanosheets with enlarged interlayer spacing and defects enables the structure-enhanced removal of Cr(vi), in which the synergistic effects of adsorption and reduction not only captured Cr(vi) from aqueous solutions, but also alleviated the toxicity of chromium to some degree.

We report the thermal stability of spherically shaped cobalt-promoted molybdenum disulfide (Co/MoS2) nano-catalysts from in-situ heating under electron irradiation in the scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) from room temperature to 550 °C ± 50 °C with aid of Fusion® holder (Protochip©, Inc.). The catalytic nanoparticles were synthesized via a hydrothermal method using sodium molybdate (Na2MoO4·2H2O) with thioacetamide (CH3CSNH2) and cobalt chloride (CoCl2) as promoter agent. The results indicate that the layered molybdenum disulfide structure with interplanar distance of ~0.62 nm remains stable even at temperatures of 550 °C, as observed in STEM mode. Subsequently, the samples were subjected to catalytic tests in a Robinson Mahoney Reactor using 30 g of Heavy Crude Oil (AGT-72) from the golden lane (Mexico’s east coast) at 50 atm using (ultrahigh purity) UHP hydrogen under 1000 rpm stirring at 350 °C for 8 h. It was found that there is no damage on the laminar stacking of Co/MoS2 with temperature, with interlayer spacing remaining at 0.62 nm; these sulfided catalytic materials led to aromatics rise of 22.65% and diminution of asphaltenes and resins by 15.87 and 3.53%, respectively.

As a two-dimensional layered material with a structure analogous to that of graphene, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) holds great promise in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs).

Medicinal plants are important natural products employed in the development of herbal medicines, which are compositions produced from the mixture of plant constituents, according to specific technical orientations (CRISTO et al., 2016). These products are usually prepared using varied pharmaceutical forms, including capsules, pills, gels, ointments, aqueous solutions, hydroalcoholic solutions and infusions (popularly known as teas) (FALZON; BALABANOVA, 2017).
