[PMID: 40129646 PMCID: PMC11931508 DOI: 10.1039/d5ra00271k] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2025] [Accepted: 03/13/2025] [Indexed: 03/26/2025] Open
Abstract
MXenes, which are essentially 2D layered structures composed of transition metal carbides and nitrides obtained from MAX phases, have gained substantial interest in the field of energy storage, especially for their potential as electrodes in supercapacitors due to their unique properties such as high electrical conductivity, large surface area, and tunable surface chemistry that enable efficient charge storage. However, their practical implementation is hindered by challenges like self-restacking, oxidation, and restricted ion transport within the layered structure. This review focuses on the synthesis process of MXenes from MAX phases, highlighting the different etching techniques employed and how they significantly influence the resulting MXene structure and subsequent electrochemical performance. It further highlights the hybridization of MXenes with carbon-based materials, conducting polymers, and metal oxides to enhance charge storage capacity, cyclic stability, and ion diffusion. The influence of dimensional structuring (1D, 2D, and 3D architectures) on electrochemical performance is critically analyzed, showcasing their role in optimizing electrolyte accessibility and energy density. Additionally, the review highlights that while MXene-based supercapacitors have seen significant advancements in terms of energy storage efficiency through various material combinations and fabrication techniques, key challenges like large-scale production, long-term stability, and compatibility with electrolytes still need to be addressed. Future research should prioritize developing scalable synthesis methods, optimizing hybrid material interactions, and investigating new electrolyte systems to fully realize the potential of MXene-based supercapacitors for commercial applications. This comprehensive review provides a roadmap for researchers aiming to bridge the gap between laboratory research and commercial supercapacitor applications.

Abstract
Owing to the adverse consequences of excess glucose (Glu) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on humans, it is imperative to develop an electrochemical sensor for detection of these analytes with good selectivity and sensitivity. Herein, a nanohybrid comprising nickel cobaltite nanoparticles (NiCo2O4 NPs) embedded on conductive Ti3C2Tx nanosheets (NSs) has been prudently designed and employed for the electrochemical detection of Glu and H2O2. The developed nanohybrid has been systematically characterized using morphological and spectral techniques, and then immobilized on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Under optimized conditions, the developed NiCo2O4-Ti3C2Tx/GCE based electrochemical sensor has demonstrated an impressive analytical response towards Glu and H2O2 with good sensitivity and selectivity. The non-enzymatic sensor has demonstrated a broad linear range from 30 μM to 1.83 mM for Glu, and two linear ranges of 20-100 μM and 100 μM-2.01 mM for H2O2. The sensor has exhibited limits of detection (LOD) of 9 μM and 6 μM with sensitivities of 101.2 μA μM-1 cm-2 and 107.03 μA μM-1 cm-2, respectively, for Glu and H2O2 detection. The impressive analytical performance of the fabricated sensor in terms of linear range, LOD and sensitivity are ascribed to the (i) enhanced conductivity of Ti3C2Tx NSs, (ii) mediated electrocatalytic activity of NiCo2O4 NPs and (iii) large number of catalytically active sites on the NiCo2O4-Ti3C2Tx heterostructure. Notably, the NiCo2O4-Ti3C2Tx/GCE has demonstrated impressive stability and reproducibility, which is mainly due to the in situ uniform growth of NiCo2O4 NPs over Ti3C2Tx NSs.

Abstract
MXene is a type of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbide and nitride, and its promising energy storage materials highlight its characteristics of high density, high metal-like conductivity, tunable terminals, and charge storage mechanisms known as pseudo-alternative capacitance. MXenes are a class of 2D materials synthesized by chemical etching of the A element in MAX phases. Since they were first discovered more than 10 years ago, the number of distinct MXenes has grown substantially to include numerous MnXn-1 (n = 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5), solid solutions (ordered and disordered), and vacancy solids. To date, MXenes used in energy storage system applications have been broadly synthesized, and this paper summarizes the current developments, successes, and challenges of using MXenes in supercapacitors. This paper also reports the synthesis approaches, various compositional issues, material and electrode topology, chemistry, and hybridization of MXene with other active materials. The present study also summarizes MXene's electrochemical properties, applicability in pliant-structured electrodes, and energy storage capabilities when using aqueous/non-aqueous electrolytes. Finally, we conclude by discussing how to reshape the face of the latest MXene and what to consider when designing the next generation of MXene-based capacitors and supercapacitors.

Abstract
Herein, we reported the in-situ preparation of manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) grafted polyaniline (Pani), a magnetic nanocomposite for the potential visible light photocatalytic material as well as electrode material for supercapacitor. The physical characterization of the prepared nanoparticle and nanocomposite was examined with various spectroscopic and microscopic analyses. The peaks observed in the X-ray diffraction study confirm the face-centered cubic phase of MnFe2O4 nanoparticles with a grain size of ∼17.6 nm. The surface morphology analysis revealed the uniform distribution of spherical-like MnFe2O4 nanoparticles on the surface of Pani. The degradation of malachite green (MG) dye under exposure to visible light was investigated using MnFe2O4/Pani nanocomposite as a photocatalyst. The results exposed the faster degradation of MG dye was accomplished by MnFe2O4/Pani nanocomposite than MnFe2O4 nanoparticles. The energy storage performance of the MnFe2O4/Pani nanocomposite was analyzed through cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge/discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analyses. The results exposed that the MnFe2O4/Pani electrode achieved a capacitance of 287.1 F/g than the MnFe2O4 electrode (94.55 F/g). Further, the respectable capacitance of 96.92% was achieved even after 3000 repetitive cycles stability . Based on the outcomes, the MnFe2O4/Pani nanocomposite can be suggested as a promising material for both photocatalytic and supercapacitor applications.

Abstract
We report a facile synthesis of MXene/bismuth ferrite (Ti3C2T x @ BiFeO3) nanocomposites using hydrazine hydrate induced with the hydrothermal method. Preparation of the composite with hydrazine hydrate prevents the formation of Bi25FeO39 inside the matrix. The 25 wt % loading of BiFeO3 acts as spacers for the multilayer restacking of MXene flakes by retaining the (002) plane. This promotes large dc conductivity with interfacial and defect dipole polarization mechanisms inside the composite material. The thinner M-H loop also indicates the minimal magnetic loss inside the composites. The facile synthesis strategy provides outstanding properties in Ti3C2T x @ BiFeO3 composites as two-dimensional multiferroic materials.

Abstract
Since the first discovery of Ti3C2 in 2011, two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal carbides, carbonitrides and nitrides, known as MXenes, have attracted significant attention. Due to their outstanding electronic, optical, mechanical, and thermal properties, versatile structures and surface chemistries, Ti3C2 MXenes have emerged as new candidates with great potential for applications in optoelectronic devices, such as photovoltaics, photodetectors and photoelectrochemical devices. The excellent metallic conductivity, high anisotropic carrier mobility, good structural and chemical stabilities, high optical transmittance, excellent mechanical strength, tunable work functions, and wide range of optical absorption properties of Ti3C2 MXene nanostructures are the key to their success in a number of electronic and photonic device applications. Herein, we summarize the fundamental properties and preparation of pure Ti3C2 MXenes, functionalized Ti3C2 MXenes and their hybrid nanocomposites, as well as their optoelectronic applications. In the end, the perspective and current challenges of Ti3C2 MXenes toward the development of advanced MXene-based nanostructures are briefly discussed for future optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
As a new member of the 2D material family, MXene integrates high metallic conductivity and hydrophilic property simultaneously. It shows tremendous potential in fields of energy storage, sensing, electromagnetic shielding, and so forth. Due to the abundant surface functional groups, the physical and chemical properties of MXene can be tuned by the formation of MXene-polymer composites. The introduction of polymers can expand the interlayer spacing, reduce the distance of ion/electron transport, improve the surface hydrophilicity, and thus guide the assembly of MXene-polymer structures. Herein, the preparation strategies of MXene-polymer composites including physical mixing, surface modification, such as anchoring through TiN and Ti-O-C bonds, bonding through esterification, grafting functional groups through TiOSi/TiOP bonds, photograft reaction, as well as in situ polymerization are highlighted. In addition, the possible mechanisms for each strategy are explained. Furthermore, the applications of MXene-polymer composites obtained by different preparation strategies are summarized. Finally, perspectives and challenges are presented for the designs of MXene-polymer composites.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) MXene materials have attracted great attention as advanced energy storage devices. A Ti3C2 MXene film can be used as a high-performance electrode material for flexible supercapacitors owing to its high specific capacitance, excellent conductivity, and remarkable flexibility. Unfortunately, self-stacking of MXene nanosheets makes them hard to balance the volumetric and areal capacitance performance. Herein, high conductive polyaniline nanoparticles (PANI NPs, ∼10 nm) are proposed as intercalators to regulate the MXene nanosheet interlayer by the self-assembly method. Interlayered PANI NPs not only restrain MXene self-stacking but also enable more ion transport routes, and conductive PANI NPs filled in MXene interlayer are in the form of nanoparticles that can build interconnected conductive channels. Meanwhile, PANI NPs slightly changes the thickness of the MX/PANI NPs hybrid film, thus bringing a high volumetric capacitance. As a result, the freestanding MX/PANI NPs-10% electrode displays an excellent areal capacitance of 1885 mF cm-2 (377 F g-1), meanwhile maintains a high volumetric capacitance of 873 F cm-3 even when the load of MXene reaches 5 mg cm-2. Moreover, the symmetric supercapacitor assembled by MX/PANI NPs hybrid film demonstrates high areal energy density (90.3 μWh cm-2) and volumetric energy density (20.9 Wh L-1) compared to MXene-based symmetric supercapacitors reported in the literature. This rational design balancing areal and volumetric energy densities provides another approach for solving the inherent problems of MXene and further exploiting MXene materials toward application in advanced energy storage devices.

Abstract
MXene is a neoteric type of bidimensional (2D) transition metal carbide/nitride with broad application prospects, in particular with electrochemical energy storage. The electrochemical performance of MXene is unsatisfactory because it is easy to stack resulting in the difficulty of electrolyte penetration and ion transport. In this study, the cobaltous sulfide-modified 3D MXene/N-doped carbon foam (CoS@MXene/CF) hybrid aerogel is projected and manufactured via simple in situ growth and thermal annealing strategies. The capacitance of the as-fabricated 300-CMC-31:1 electrode material reaches 250 F g-1 (1 A g-1), which is obviously higher than those of MXene, CoS@CF, 400-CMC-31:1, 300-CMC-10:1, 300-CMC-50:1, CF, and MXene/CF electrode materials. Moreover, it can hold 97.5% of the original capacitance after 10,000 cycles and the internal resistance (Rs) is only 0.50 Ω. A green bulb can be lit by two all-solid asymmetric supercapacitors installed in series. The prepared CoS@MXene/CF hybrid aerogel exhibits promising potential for practical application in energy storage areas.

Abstract
MXenes, such as Ti3C2Tx, are promising materials for electrodes of supercapacitors (SCs). Colloidal techniques have potential for the fabrication of advanced Ti3C2Tx composites with high areal capacitance (CS). This paper reports the fabrication of Ti3C2TX-Fe3O4-multiwalled carbon nanotube (CNT) electrodes, which show CS of 5.52 F cm-2 in the negative potential range in 0.5 M Na2SO4 electrolyte. Good capacitive performance is achieved at a mass loading of 35 mg cm-2 due to the use of Celestine blue (CB) as a co-dispersant for individual materials. The mechanisms of CB adsorption on Ti3C2TX, Fe3O4, and CNTs and their electrostatic co-dispersion are discussed. The comparison of the capacitive behavior of Ti3C2TX-Fe3O4-CNT electrodes with Ti3C2TX-CNT and Fe3O4-CNT electrodes for the same active mass, electrode thickness and CNT content reveals a synergistic effect of the individual capacitive materials, which is observed due to the use of CB. The high CS of Ti3C2TX-Fe3O4-CNT composites makes them promising materials for application in negative electrodes of asymmetric SC devices.

Abstract
A hierarchical structure of TiO2 nanorod/MnO2 ultrathin nanosheet core/shell nanocomposite arrays on a conductive substrate has been prepared by two facile steps of hydrothermal reaction and annealing progress, which serving as electrodes present great potential application for high-performance supercapacitors. By adjusting the concentration of precursor aqueous solution, it can be found that the thickness of the MnO2 shell in the as-designed hierarchical electrode material can be facilely controlled. By comparison, the obtained TiO2 nanorod/MnO2 ultrathin nanosheet as an electrode material can achieve the best electrochemical performance in terms of the area-specific capacitance up to 34.79 mF/cm2 from the cyclic voltammetry (CV) test at the scan rate of 5 mV/s. Furthermore, the composited electrode has also demonstrated good stability, with the capacitance retention rate of about 91% through the cycle experiment test after 1000 cycles.

Abstract
The increasing demand for high-performance rechargeable energy storage systems has stimulated the exploration of advanced electrode materials. MXenes are a class of two-dimensional (2D) inorganic transition metal carbides/nitrides, which are promising candidates in electrodes. The layered structure facilitates ion insertion/extraction, which offers promising electrochemical characteristics for electrochemical energy storage. However, the low capacity accompanied by sluggish electrochemical kinetics of electrodes as well as interlayer restacking and collapse significantly impede their practical applications. Recently, interlayer space engineering of MXenes by different chemical strategies have been widely investigated in designing functional materials for various applications. In this review, an overview of the most recent progress of 2D MXenes engineering by intercalation, surface modification as well as heterostructures design is provided. Moreover, some critical challenges in future research on MXene-based electrodes have been also proposed.

Exploring stable cycling electrode materials with high energy and power density is the key to accelerating the development and application of supercapacitors. Ti3 C2 Tx , which is the most investigated member of the family of two-dimensional layered transition-metal carbides, has attracted considerable attention, owing to its unique two-dimensional morphology, large interlayer spacing, outstanding metallic conductivity, abundant chemical surface, and ultrahigh volumetric capacitance. However, the inherent restacking tendency of ultrathin Ti3 C2 Tx sheets hinder its practical application. In this review, the synthetic methods and charge-storage mechanisms of Ti3 C2 Tx are stressed to provide clues for improving its electrochemical performance. Functionalization, including architectural construction, hybridization, and surface modification of the Ti3 C2 Tx sheets, to circumvent difficulties and application in supercapacitors is then summarized. Accordingly, the aim is to highlight the opportunities and challenges for Ti3 C2 Tx -based materials in practical applications in supercapacitors.

[PMID: 32085408 PMCID: PMC7075139 DOI: 10.3390/nano10020345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2020] [Revised: 02/10/2020] [Accepted: 02/12/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Layered two-dimensional titanium carbide (Ti3C2Tx), as an outstanding MXene member, has captured increasing attention in supercapacitor applications due to its excellent chemical and physical properties. However, the low gravimetric capacitance of Ti3C2Tx restricts its rapid development in such applications. Herein, this work demonstrates an effective and facile hydrothermal approach to synthesize nitrogen doped intercalation TiO2/TiN/Ti3C2Tx with greatly improved gravimetric capacitance and excellent cycling stability. The hexamethylenetetramine (C6H12N4) in hydrothermal environment acted as the nitrogen source and intercalants, while the Ti3C2Tx itself was the titanium source of TiO2 and TiN. We tested the optimized nitrogen doped intercalation TiO2/TiN/Ti3C2Tx electrodes in H2SO4, Li2SO4, Na2SO4, LiOH and KOH electrolytes, respectively. The electrode in H2SO4 electrolyte delivered the best electrochemical performance with high gravimetric capacitance of 361 F g−1 at 1 A g−1 and excellent cycling stability of 85.8% after 10,000 charge/discharge cycles. A systematic study of material characterization combined with the electrochemical performances disclosed that TiO2/TiN nanoparticles, the introduction of nitrogen and the NH4+ intercalation efficaciously increased the specific surface areas, which is beneficial for facilitating electrolyte ions transportation. Given the excellent performance, nitrogen doped intercalation TiO2/TiN/Ti3C2Tx bodes well as a promising pseudocapacitor electrode for energy storage applications.

Abstract
Conducting polyaniline (PANI) with high conductivity, ease of synthesis, high flexibility, low cost, environmental friendliness and unique redox properties has been extensively applied in electrochemical energy storage and conversion technologies including supercapacitors, rechargeable batteries and fuel cells. Pure PANI exhibits inferior stability as supercapacitive electrode, and can not meet the ever-increasing demand for more stable molecular structure, higher power/energy density and more N-active sites. The combination of PANI and other active materials like carbon materials, metal compounds and other conducting polymers (CPs) can make up for these disadvantages as supercapacitive electrode. As for rechargeable batteries and fuel cells, recent research related to PANI mainly focus on PANI modified composite electrodes and supported composite electrocatalysts respectively. In various PANI based composite structures, PANI usually acts as a conductive layer and network, and the resultant PANI based composites with various unique structures have demonstrated superior electrochemical performance in supercapacitors, rechargeable batteries and fuel cells due to the synergistic effect. Additionally, PANI derived N-doped carbon materials also have been widely used as metal-free electrocatalysts for fuel cells, which is also involved in this review. In the end, we give a brief outline of future advances and research directions on PANI.

Abstract
Lightweight and compatible metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived carbon-based composites are widely used in electromagnetic (EM) absorption. Their combination with laminated TiO2-C (derived from Ti3C2T x) is expected to further strengthen the EM attenuation ability. Herein, novel laminated Co/TiO2-C hybrids were derived from Ti3C2T x/Co-MOF using heat treatment. Compared with pristine MOF-derived carbon-based composites, the EM absorption ability of Co/TiO2-C was improved by multiple reflections between multilayered microstructures and the improved polarization loss (due to the heterogeneous interfaces, residual defects, and dipole polarization) and the strengthened conductivity loss caused by the carbon layers. Specifically, for the Co/TiO2-C hybrids at thicknesses of 3.0 and 2.0 mm, the optimal reflection loss (RL) was -41.1 dB at 9.0 GHz and -31.0 dB at 13.9 GHz, with effective bandwidths (RL ≤ -10 dB) of 3.04 and 4.04 GHz, respectively. This study will underline the preparation of carbon-based absorbing materials starting from MXene/MOF hybrids.

Abstract
A harmonized three-component composite system which preserves the characteristics of individual components is of interest in the field of energy storage. Here, we present a graphene-encapsulated MXene Ti2CT x@polyaniline composite (GMP) material realized in a systematically stable configuration with different ternary nanomaterials for supercapacitor electrodes. Due to the different ζ-potentials in a high-pH solution, chemically converted graphene (negatively charged) is thoroughly unfolded to allow full encapsulation, but the MXene Ti2CT x@polyaniline composite with a low positive ζ-potential is easily attracted toward a counter-charged substance. The obtained GMP electrode exhibits improved cycling stability and better electrochemical performance owing to the use of mechanically robust and chemically inert graphene and the densely intercalated conductive polyaniline between the multilayer MXenes. The GMP electrode has a high gravimetric capacitance of 635 F g-1 (volumetric capacitance of 1143 F cm-3) at a current density of 1 A g-1 with excellent cycling stability of 97.54% after 10 000 cycles. Furthermore, the asymmetric pouch-type supercapacitor assembled using the GMP as a positive electrode and graphene as a negative electrode yields a high energy density of 42.3 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 950 W kg-1 and remarkable cycling stability (94.25% after 10 000 cycles at 10 A g-1).

Abstract
Ti3 C2 Tx , a typical representative among the emerging family of 2D layered transition metal carbides and/or nitrides referred to as MXenes, has exhibited multiple advantages including metallic conductivity, a plastic layer structure, small band gaps, and the hydrophilic nature of its functionalized surface. As a result, this 2D material is intensively investigated for application in the energy storage field. The composition, morphology and texture, surface chemistry, and structural configuration of Ti3 C2 Tx directly influence its electrochemical performance, e.g., the use of a well-designed 2D Ti3 C2 Tx as a rechargeable battery anode has significantly enhanced battery performance by providing more chemically active interfaces, shortened ion-diffusion lengths, and improved in-plane carrier/charge-transport kinetics. Some recent progresses of Ti3 C2 Tx MXene are achieved in energy storage. This Review summarizes recent advances in the synthesis and electrochemical energy storage applications of Ti3 C2 Tx MXene including supercapacitors, lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries, and lithium-sulfur batteries. The current opportunities and future challenges of Ti3 C2 Tx MXene are addressed for energy-storage devices. This Review seeks to provide a rational and in-depth understanding of the relation between the electrochemical performance and the nanostructural/chemical composition of Ti3 C2 Tx , which will promote the further development of 2D MXenes in energy-storage applications.

Abstract
MXene, an important and increasingly popular category of postgraphene 2D nanomaterials, has been rigorously investigated since early 2011 because of advantages including flexible tunability in element composition, hydrophobicity, metallic nature, unique in-plane anisotropic structure, high charge-carrier mobility, tunable band gap, and favorable optical and mechanical properties. To fully exploit these potentials and further expand beyond the existing boundaries, novel functional nanostructures spanning monolayer, multilayer, nanoparticles, and composites have been developed by means of intercalation, delamination, functionalization, hybridization, among others. Undeniably, the cutting-edge developments and applications of clay-inspired 2D MXene platform as electrochemical electrode or photo-electrocatalyst have conferred superior performance and have made significant impact in the field of energy and advanced catalysis. This review provides an overview of the fundamental properties and synthesis routes of pure MXene, functionalized MXene and their hybrids, highlights the state-of-the-art progresses of MXene-based applications with respect to supercapacitors, batteries, electrocatalysis and photocatalysis, and presents the challenges and prospects in the burgeoning field.
