摘要

In this work, low-cost conductive polymer polyaniline (PANI) was confirmed to be a proper substrate of MoS2, and formed MoS2/PANI nanorod. The dense and uniform vertical alignment of MoS2 on PANI substrate, with large amount of active edges exposed and the improvement of electron transfer efficiency, contributes to the excellent photocatalytic activity under visible light. This MoS2/PANI composite exhibits high photocatalytic performance in the degradation of E. coli and hydrogen evolution under visible light. The high visible-light photocatalytic activity of the MoS2/PANI composite is ascribed to the increase of surface active centers exposure and charge separation property of PANI.
