Layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted increased attention due to their enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance. More specifically, ternary TMD nanohybrids, such as MoS2(1-x)Se2x or bimetallic sulfides, have arisen as promising electrocatalysts compared to MoS2 and MoSe2 due to their electronic, morphologic, and size tunabilities. Herein, we report the successful synthesis of few-layered MoS2/rGO, SnS2/rGO, and (MoS2)(x)(SnO2)(1-x)/rGO nanohybrids anchored on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) through a facile hydrothermal reaction in the presence of ionic liquids as stabilizing, delayering agents. Spectroscopic and microscopic techniques (electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, neutron activation analysis, and UV vis spectrophotometry) are used to validate the hierarchical properties, phase identity, and the smooth compositional tunability of the (MoS2)(x)(SnO2)(1-x)/rGO nanohybrids. Linear sweep voltammetry measurements reveal that incorporation of Sn into the ternary nanohybrids (as a discrete SnO2 phase) greatly reduces the overpotential by 90-130 mV relative to the MoS2 electrocatalyst. Significantly, the (MoS2)(0.6)(SnO2)(0.4)./rGO nanohybrid displays superior catalytic performance over MoS2 alone, exhibiting a low overpotential (rho) of 263 5 mV and a small Tafel slope of 50.8 mV dec-1. The hybrid catalyst shows high stability for the HER in acidic solutions, with negligible activity loss after 1000 cycles. The hierarchical structures and large surface areas possessing exposed, active edge sites make few layered (MoS2)(x)(SnO2)(1-x),/rGO nanohybrids promising nonprecious metal electrocatalysts for the HER.
