NbMoS₃ is a ternary transition metal sulfide compound combining niobium, molybdenum, and sulfur, representing an emerging material in the layered chalcogenide family. This composition is primarily investigated in research contexts for catalytic and electrochemical applications, particularly as a potential replacement for precious-metal catalysts in hydrogen evolution and other electrocatalytic processes. The material's appeal lies in its combination of multiple transition metals—which can create active edge sites—and the layered sulfide structure that offers tunable electronic properties and exposed catalytic surfaces.
