Recently, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), have been explored as photothermal materials for solar evaporation. However, the optimum phase for photothermal material, 1T-MoS2 or 2H-MoS2, is still debatable. In this work, we observed the morphological and structural properties of MoS2 prepared by a simple hydrothermal process at 200 °C in three different growth times (16, 20, and 24 hours) using Na2MoO4·2H2O (sodium molybdate) as a Mo precursor, and CS(NH2)2 (thiourea) as S precursor. MoS2 nanoflowers were successfully prepared with nanosheets petals and its diameter increased from 0.4 to 2.8 and 4.5 as the growth time increased from 16 to 20 and 24 hours. The increase in growth time also led to improve the Mo:S ratio from 1:8 to 1:5 and facilitate the phase transformation from 1T to 2H as indicated by the shifting of (002) diffraction peak from 9.25° to higher degrees (12.98°, and 14.12°).

Abstract In order to improve the thermal conductivity of epoxy resins (EP) without reducing their dielectric properties, a kind of molybdenum disulfide with microspheres structure (S-MoS2) was prepared via surfactant promoting hydrothermal process based on the sodium molybdate, thiosemicarbazide, and sodium dodecyl sulfate. The S-MoS2 was then used as modifiers to add into EP matrix to prepare a new kind of S-MoS2/EP composites. The morphology of the prepared S-MoS2 was observed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) scanning electron microscopy (SEM), while the influence of different S-MoS2 loading on the dielectric properties, thermal conductivity and thermal resistance of S-MoS2/EP composites was also researched. The results suggested that the reasonable content of S-MoS2 can highly improve the thermal conductivity of S-MoS2/EP, which can be attributed to the excellent thermal resistant and uniform dispersion of S-MoS2 in EP matrix.

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.

One-dimensional titania structures were synthesized trough a simple hydrothermal process in a highly alkaline conditions. The aim of this work was to elucidate the effect of time on the formation of 1D titanates as well on its structural characteristics (morphology, phase composition, surface area). Apart from that, the effect of heat treatment conditions on the stability of titanate based 1D samples has been investigated. The results have revealed that it is possible to form one-dimensional titanates already after 1 hour of hydrothermal synthesis. Although the composition of titanates is still under debate, the results probably correspond to the layered sodium titanates. The 1D prepared structures show a remarkable stability during heating, remaining the basic morphology and composition even up to 700?C.

A synthetic zeolite was produced from natural zeolite from Ende-Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT) by hydrothermal method. This study aims to produce synthetic zeolite from Ende natural zeolite to remove cation dye through the adsorption process. Temperature of crystal formation (ageing) was performed at 60 °C for 6 h and hydrothermal process was at 100 °C for 24 h. The natural zeolite produced synthetic NaP1 and synthetic Faujasite. Based on the research results, the synthesis of zeolite by the hydrothermal method can enhance the adsorption capacity and Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). The adsorption capacity in the natural zeolites of type ZG, ZL and ZC before the hydrothermal process were 17.289, 17.276, and 16.483 mg/g, respectively, and after hydrothermal they increased to 37.398, 37.369 and 37.362 mg/g, respectively. In addition, the CEC increased from 84.154, 81.042, and 77.474 cmol/kg, respectively, to 244.063, 216.354, and 211.432 cmol/kg, respectively. The Langmuir model most closely matched the isothermal adsorption equilibrium process.
