Abstract
The fast thermolysis of ammonium molybdate leads to a mixture of MoO 3 and Mo 5.3O 14.5(OH) 2.8(H 2O) 1.36 with spherical and rod-like morphologies. The oxide mixture can be converted in quantitative yield to inorganic fullerene-type (IF) MoS 2 and MoS 2 nanotubes (NT) by H 2S reduction using a facile and quick procedure. The products were studied by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). TEM analysis reveals that the spherical and rod-like morphology of the oxide precursor is preserved during the H 2S treatment.
