Two-dimensional MoS2 nanosheets (NSs) with high active site density were designed for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) through a microdomain reaction method. The effect of the annealing temperature on the microstructure and the HER performance of MoS2 NSs was examined, and a plausible relation between the stack structures of the MoS2 catalysts and their HER performance was also explored. The MoS2 NS electrocatalyst obtained at 550 °C reveals the best HER performance with a relatively small Tafel slope of 68 mV/dec. Both the exposed surface area and active site density are very important for providing a large amount of active sites. The present work has been proved to be an efficient route to achieve a high active site density and a relatively large surface area, which might have potential use in photoelectrocatalytic water splitting.

Thiosulfate salts have been known to be dangerous corrosion promoters for over 30 years, when present under typical service conditions. This paper reviews the role of thiosulfate anion in causing localized corrosion and/or stress corrosion cracking of steels. Electrochemical and mechanical aspects associated with the pitting and stress corrosion cracking of steels in thiosulfate-containing environments are thoroughly discussed and reviewed. In particular, results
