Ball-milling technology was used to activate a natural grade molybdenum sulfide which is known as inactive material for many catalytic reactions. After milled several hours, the molybdenum sulfide shows dramatic increase in catalytic activity on synagas to alcohols reaction as the crystallite size decreases.
