In this work, we demonstrate the synthesis of three-dimensional hierarchical nanostructured cobalt disulfide/molybdenum disulfide growth on carbon fiber cloth (CoS2/MoS2/CC) for hydrogen evolution reaction and supercapacitor. CoS2nanoparticles anchor on flower-like MoS2nanosheets grown on CC by a two-step procedure via facile single mode microwave-assisted hydrothermal technique. It was observed that CoS2/MoS2nanocomposites were uniformly dispersed on CC and CoS2nanoparticles were wrapped by flower-like MoS2nanosheets. Remarkably, the binder-free CoS2/MoS2/CC maintains its activity after 1000 cycles and exhibits superior catalytic activity in hydrogen evolution reaction, with a low overpotential of 177 mV to achieve current density of 10 mA cm−2and a Tafel slope of 66 mV dec−1. Furthermore, the bifunctional CoS2/MoS2/CC for supercapacitor delivers a higher specific capacitance of 406 F/g and excellent long-life cycling stability, retaining 95.27% of the initial capacitance after 10000 cycles. The enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction and supercapacitor property may be ascribed to the synergistic effect between metallic CoS2and MoS2, moreover more electrochemical accessible active sites and fast electron transport path can be obtained.
