This study addresses the challenge of large-scale synthesis of TMC materials by synthesizing Mo2C encapsulated in a multilayer graphene coral-like nanostructure, which effectively improves the oxidation stability of Mo2C. The research demonstrates the potential of graphene/Mo2C for applications in nanostructured electrodes and heaters due to its exceptional electrical conductivity, enhanced chemical durability, mechanical flexibility, and outstanding performance in deformable heaters.
Although transition metal carbides (TMCs) exhibit intriguing physical and chemical properties, a central issue for multifaceted applications based on TMC materials is to meet a large-scale and reliable synthetic route of airstable TMC materials. Here, the primary aim is to address the issues by synthesizing Mo2C encapsulated with multilayer graphene coral-like nanostructure. The oxidation stability of Mo2C can be effectively compensated by the complementary hybridization of multilayer graphene, which serves as a perfect chemical barrier. Large-scale graphene/Mo2C can be readily synthesized on commercial Mo foils by surface-oxidation-mediated chemical vapor deposition. Explicit structural and chemical evaluation was implemented to explore the structural and chemical manipulation of Mo2C by selecting the starting material (Mo or MoO3). Differences in the thickness of the oxide layers on the Mo surface led to structural and material diversities for the formation of Mo2C with nanogranular and graphene/Mo2C coral-like nanostructures. The capability of graphene/Mo2C for applications in nanostructured electrodes and heaters was validated by its extraordinary electrical conductivity, substantial enhancement in chemical durability and mechanical flexibility, and outstanding performance of deformable heaters.
