Influence of Inorganic Anions on the Chemical Stability of Molybdenum Disulfide Nanosheets in the Aqueous Environment.

ABSTRACT: Chemical stability is closely associated with the transformations and bioavailabilities of engineered nanomaterials and is a key factor that governs broader and long-term application. With the growing utilization of molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) nanosheets in water treatment and purification processes, it is crucial to evaluate the stability of MoS₂ nanosheets in aquatic environments. Nonetheless, the effects of anionic species on MoS₂ remain largely unexplored. Herein, the stability of chemically exfoliated MoS₂ nanosheets (ceMoS₂) was assessed in the presence of inorganic anions. The results showed that the chemical stability of ceMoS₂ was regulated by the nucleophilicities and the resultant charging effects of the anions in
