Optimization and scalability assessment of supercapacitor electrodes based on hydrothermally grown MoS₂ on carbon cloth.

ABSTRACT: MoS₂ is a well-known 2D transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) with feasibility for energy storage applications due to its eco-friendliness and high electroactive surface area. Electrodes based on MoS₂ are typically made by either immobilizing its multiphase nanocomposites, having binders and conductive fillers, or by directly growing the materials on current collectors. In this work, we follow and optimize this latter approach by applying a hydrothermal route to directly synthesize MoS₂ nanostructures on carbon cloth (MoS₂@CC) hence enabling binder-free current collector electrodes. Raman spectroscopy and electron microscopy analyses confirmed the formation of 2H MoS₂ nanosheets with hexagonal structure. The as-prepared electrodes were
