The emergence of graphene (GN) in 2004 has opened up a vista of opportunities for exploration and exploitation of other two-dimensional (2-D) nanomaterials (NM), exhibiting varying superior properties especially electrical features above the prospects of gapless (zero energy gap) GN for next-genre electronics, photonics, nanoarchitectures, and multifunctional applications. Asides GN, 2-D transition metal chalcogenides (TMD) nanosheets, especially molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), have garnered great attention due to their properties similar to GN. MoS2 has been versatily exploited for multifunctional applications due to its inexpensiveness, magnetic features, low weight, and outstanding electronic, optical, and mechanical attributes as well as ease of availability which are potentially usable in areas of sensors, solar cells, transistors, catalysts, energy storage, electronic and photovoltaic applications. The emergence of nanotechnology has propelled embedment of MoS2 nanoparticulates within polymeric matrices and subsequent fabrication of MoS2@polymeric nanoarchitectures (MoS2@PNC) with enhanced properties for a plethora of applications. Therefore, this paper presents recently emerging advancements in fabrication and multifunctional applications of hybrid MoS2 and MoS2@PNC. In comparison with similar publications on this subject matter, the present paper presents state of the art recently emerging trends in mechanism and routes of achieving fire safety in MoS2@PNC.
