Abstract

Nanozyme is a promising approach in treating pollution in drinking water sources. 2D MoS2 nanosheets, with abundant active sites and Lewis acid sites, exhibit outstanding peroxidase-like activity. Verified by density functional calculation, S vacancies in 2D MoS2 nanosheets can cleavage H2O to yield H+ and ·OH. The spontaneous generation of acid environment and oxygen free radicals enables 2D MoS2 nanosheets to be effectively exploited in the depuration of polluted water, creating a new era for multifunctional nanozymes.
