In this paper, composites of Ti3C2/ZIF-8/ZIF-67 were obtained through in situ growing ZIF-8/ZIF-67 on Ti3C2 with two-dimensional structure prepared by etching MXene using HF. Furtherly, novel materials of Ti3C2 modified with hollow polyhedrons composed of Co nanoparticles and N-doped carbon nanotube (Ti3C2/CoNP-NCNTHP) was got through derivation with high temperature calcination. The materials were combinations of two-dimensional nanosheets and three-dimensional hollow polyhedras, which were characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, XPS and EIS. Based on this, a new electrochemical sensor of Ti3C2/CoNP-NCNTHP/GCE was constructed to detect paracetamol (PA) and 4-aminophenol (4-AP) simultaneously. Under optimal conditions, the linear ranges for detection of PA and 4-AP were 0.50–350.00 μM and 0.50–200.00 μM with the limits of detection of 0.05 μM and 0.07 μM, respectively. This proposed sensor has lower detection limits and good linear ranges, which was successfully applied for river water and acetaminophen tablets with good accuracy and has potential prospects for practical applications.

Two-dimensional (2D) MXene-based materials are gained significant attention as a prospective anode in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their superior metallic conductivity, high volumetric capacitance, and thermal stability. However, the unsatisfactory electrochemical performance of MXene-based anodes essentially restricts their practical use attributed to the prevalent interlayer stacking. The urchin-like Ti 3 C 2 @CNTs involve grafting carbon nanotubes (CNTs) onto the 3D hollow MXene via catalytic growth could promise to overcome this obstacle. As conductive bridges, the CNTs further expedite the exchange of charges at the interface, resulting in improved electrochemical kinetics of the composite, which exhibits a high specific capacity of 286.2 mA h g −1 at 1 A g −1 after 2000 cycles. Beneficial from the well-designed architecture, outstanding microwave absorption was achieved with the optimal reflection loss of −48.1 dB covering the C band. This study proposed a practical strategy for fabricating the Ti 3 C 2 @CNTs composite in high-performance lithium-ion batteries and microwave absorbers.

Herein, a collection of novel N-Ti 3 C 2 /BiOCl x Br 1−x composites are fabricated via a simple in-situ sonochemical process. Not only the preparation method for N-Ti 3 C 2 but also the photocatalytic system of N-Ti 3 C 2 /BiOCl x Br 1−x are firstly developed. Multiple characterizations jointly demonstrate the successful fabrication of the composites. Compared to that of BiOCl x Br 1−x , the maximum improvements of 1.16, 1.25 and 1.26 folds are severally confirmed for the photocatalytic degradation of levofloxacin, Rhodamine B, and methylene blue over N-Ti 3 C 2 /BiOCl x Br 1−x composites. In addition, through radicals trapping tests, the primary active species in photocatalytic degradation process are verified to be O 2 − . Moreover, N-Ti 3 C 2 /BiOCl x Br 1−x composites also exhibit 1.18 and 1.14 times enhancements for NH 3 production compared with that of BiOCl x Br 1−x with or without the presence of methanol, respectively. In addition, the maximum improvements of photo-current and photo-potential for BiOCl x Br 1−x are 1.29 and 1.86 folds with the introduction of N-Ti 3 C 2 , respectively. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of N-Ti 3 C 2 /BiOCl x Br 1−x composites is owing to the heightened light absorption, increased specific surface area, and accelerated separation of photoinduced carriers. Additionally, the stable photocatalytic properties of N-Ti 3 C 2 /BiOCl x Br 1−x are confirmed by three photocatalytic recycle tests on pollutant degradation and nitrogen reduction combined with X-ray diffraction patterns before and after three recycles. This study suggests that N-Ti 3 C 2 is an efficient ornamentation for boosting photocatalytic activity of BiOCl x Br 1−x , which can also be expanded as a promising modifier for other semiconductors.

Ti3C2 has been considered as a potential material for lithium-ion storage because of its abundant surface terminals, excellent metal-like conductivity, and modifiable layered structure. However, the Li+ diffusion rate in interlayer is limited by the small interlayer spacing determined by the van der Waals forces. Herein, the dehydration condensation reaction between amino-functionalized Ti3C2 (Ti3C2-NH2) and maleic acid (MA) molecules was utilized to enlarge the interlayer spacing of Ti3C2. The MA molecules were successfully welded into interlayers of Ti3C2 by HN–C═O bonds (namely, chemical welding) and MA chemical welded Ti3C2 (MA-Ti3C2) with self-adaption layered structure were obtained. The MA molecules can contribute double effects to the layered structure of Ti3C2, and they act as chains to remit the volume change during Li+ insertion and serve as pillars to enhance the structure stability during Li+ extraction. The MA-Ti3C2 exhibits an interlayer spacing of 1.28 nm, a fast Li+ diffusion rate (1.4 × 10–8 to 5.8 × 10–7 cm2 s–1), and improved Li+ storage performance. The MA-Ti3C2//AC lithium-ion capacitor (LIC) demonstrates an excellent energy density of 102.5 Wh kg–1 at 200 W kg–1 and cycle stability with 76.3% at 1.0 A g–1 after 1000 cycles. This novel chemical welding delivers an effective perspective for modifying the layered structure, enhancing the structure stability, and achieving fast Li+ diffusion and high-rate capability of two-dimension materials.

Developing efficient heterojunction photocatalysts that have a high charge carrier separation rate and improved light-harvesting capacity is a crucial step in solving energy crisis and reducing environmental pollution. Herein, we synthesized few-layered Ti 3 C 2 MXene sheets (MXs) by a manual shaking process, and combined with CdIn 2 S 4 (CIS) to construct novel Ti 3 C 2 MXene/CdIn 2 S 4 (MXCIS) Schottky heterojunction through a solvothermal method. The strong interface between two-dimensional (2D) Ti 3 C 2 MXene and 2D CIS nanoplates led to enhanced light-harvesting capacity and promoted charge separation rate. Additionally, the presence of S vacancies on the MXCIS surface helped to trap free electrons. The optimal sample, 5-MXCIS (with 5 wt% MXs loading), exhibited outstanding performance for photocatalytic hydrogen (H 2 ) evolution and Cr(VI) reduction under visible light due to the synergistic effect of enhanced light-harvesting capacity and charge separation rate. The charge transfer kinetics was thoroughly studied using multiple techniques. The reactive species of • O 2 − , • OH and h + were generated in 5-MXCIS system, and e − and • O 2 − radicals were found to be the main contributors to Cr(VI) photoreduction. Based on the characterization results, a possible photocatalytic mechanism for H 2 evolution and Cr(VI) reduction was proposed. On the whole, this work provides new insights into the design of 2D/2D MXene-based Schottky heterojunction photocatalysts for boosting photocatalytic efficiency.

Designing and tuning macropores into aligned structure is of considerable importance in promoting mass transfer, improving chromatographic performance and enhancing column efficiency. Herein, we have synthesized an innovative aligned porous Chitosan/Ti 3 C 2 MXenes monolith via a facile, versatile and reproducible unidirectional “freeze-casting” method. Typically, the accumulation of Ti 3 C 2 MXenes directs the formation of aligned structure during the unidirectional freezing process and thus aligned macropores are formed by a subsequent freeze-drying process. By various physical characterization, the distribution of aligned macropores, micropores and specific surface area are determined to be 21 μm, 2.53 nm and 103.09 m 2 ·g −1 , respectively. In addition, monolith bed permeability is calculated to be 1.94 × 10 -12 m 2 , approximately 10 times than conventional monolith. Batch adsorptive experiments confirm that adsorptive capacities to bovine serum albumin and bovine hemoglobin are remarkably elevated on account of the high affinity of proteins onto those imbedding Ti 3 C 2 MXenes. Meanwhile, continuous mass transfer equation describes the aligned macropores facilitate the film mass transfer factor ([ k L a ] f ) in a separation process thus driving the global mass transfer factor ([ k L a ] g ). It is expected that the aligned porous Chitosan/Ti 3 C 2 MXenes monolith promises great potential for a continuous separation of proteins when a wholesale production is required.

A three-dimensional (3D) self-assembled AuNPs/Ti 3 C 2 MXene hydrogel (AuNPs/Ti 3 C 2 MXH) nanocomposite was prepared for the fabrication of a novel microRNA-122 electrochemical biosensor. The 3D hydrogel structure was gelated from two-dimensional MXene nanosheets with the assistance of graphite oxide and ethylenediamine. MXene hydrogels supported the in situ formation of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) that predominantly exploring the (111) facet, and these AuNPs are utilized as carriers for hairpin DNA (hpDNA) probes, facilitating DNA hybridization. MXene acted as both a reductant and stabilizer, significantly improving the electrochemical signal. In addition, the conjugation of PAMAM dendrimer-encapsulated AuNPs and H-DNA worked as an ideal bridge to connect targets and efficient electrochemical tags, providing a high amplification efficiency for the sensing of microRNA-122. A linear relationship between the peak currents and the logarithm of the concentrations of microRNA-122 from 1.0 × 10 −2 to 1.0 × 10 2 fM (I = 1.642 + 0.312 lg c , R 2 = 0.9891), is obtained. The detection limit is 0.8 × 10 −2 fM (S/N = 3). The average recovery for human serum detection ranged from 97.32 to 101.4% (RSD < 5%). Graphical Abstract

In the present work, two-dimension lamellar Ti 3 C 2 was employed as additive of LiNa 2 AlH 6 . Volumetric dehydrogenation results informed that the onset dehydrogenation temperature of the ball milled LiNa 2 AlH 6 + 5 wt% Ti 3 C 2 sample was lowered by 68 K from that of pristine LiNa 2 AlH 6 . Isothermal pressure-composition (P-C-I) curves and van't Hoff plots demonstrated that the dehydrogenation enthalpy value (61 kJ mol H 2 −1 ) of LiNa 2 AlH 6 + 5 wt% Ti 3 C 2 was significantly reduced from the pristine LiNa 2 AlH 6 (68 kJ mol H 2 −1 ). By means of XPS analyses, it can be revealed that the destabilization of LiNa 2 AlH 6 should be resulted from the involvement of Ti and the yield of unidentified Ti 3+ species. Furthermore, it can be concluded that the lowering of dehydrogenation temperature was merely due to the thermal destabilization of LiNa 2 AlH 6 by Ti 3 C 2 , since Ti 3 C 2 hardly improved the dehydrogenation kinetics of LiNa 2 AlH 6 and reduced its activation energy . However, hydrogenation kinetics was slightly enhanced from the released products of LiNa 2 AlH 6 + 5 wt% Ti 3 C 2 .

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) detection as a potential development strategy for Cu 2+ ion sensor has arisen extensive attention. Herein, CdS/Ti 3 C 2 heterostructure was synthesized by electrostatically driven assembly and hydrothermal method. On the basis of a CdS/Ti 3 C 2 heterostructure, a novel anodic PEC sensing platform was constructed for highly sensitive detection of trace amount of Cu 2+ . Carrier transport at the interface of CdS/Ti 3 C 2 heterostructure was tremendously improved, due to the generation of effective Schottky junctions. Under visible light irradiation, the CdS/Ti 3 C 2 heterostructure-modified PEC platform exhibits great anode photocurrent signal, and the formation of Cu x S reduces the PEC response with the presence of Cu 2+ as a representative analyte. Thus, the linear response of Cu 2+ ranges from 0.1 nM to 10 µM and the limits of detection (LOD, 0.05 nM) are obtained, which is lower than that of WHO’s Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality (30 μM). This idea of component reconstitution provides a new paradigm for the design of advanced PEC sensors. Graphical abstract

A novel electrochemical sensor based on titanium carbide (Ti 3 C 2 ) and cobalt porphyrin (CoTMPyP) nanocomposite was developed to detect catechol (CC). X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) methods were used to characterize the CoTMPyP/Ti 3 C 2 nanocomposite and illuminate the electrochemical oxidation process, as well as electrochemical techniques such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were measured. The results indicate that the introduction of CoTMPyP greatly enhanced the electron transfer capability and maintained high stability, good reproducibility, and interference resistance. Moreover, it has a lower detection limit (2.5 μM) in the range of 5–268 μM and has greater application potential in the detection of CC. Hence, Ti 3 C 2 nanocomposites are considered as a candidate material for combination with carbon materials and have potential applications in environmental analysis and catechol detection.

As an important epigenetic modification , 5-carboxycytosine (5caC) played an important role in gene regulation, cell differentiation and growth. 5caC existed in many cells and tissues, but it was highly similar to the structure of other cytosine derivatives and had less content in the genome. Therefore, it was urgent to develop a sensitive and highly selective trace biosensor to detect 5caC. A novel photoelectrochemical biosensor was fabricated for 5-carboxy-2′-deoxycytidine-5′-triphosphate (5cadCTP) detection, where SnS 2 @Ti 3 C 2 nanocomposite was employed as photoactive material, polyethyleneimine was used as 5cadCTP recognition and capture reagent, and Ru(NH 3 ) 6 3+ was used as photosensitizer for signal amplification. Due the good conductivity of Ti 3 C 2 MXene and the matched energy band between Ti 3 C 2 MXene and SnS 2 , SnS 2 @Ti 3 C 2 nanocomposite presented strong photoactivity, which was beneficial to the high detection sensitivity. For specific recognition of 5cadCTP, the covalent interaction of –NH 2 in 5cadCTP with –COOH on the substrate electrode was used, which was beneficial to the high detection selectivity . A broad linear relationship between photocurrent and 5cadCTP concentration was observed ranging from 1 pM to 0.2 μM. The low detection limit of 260 fM was achieved. The developed method has high detection specificity and can even distinguish 5caC with its derivatives. In addition, the applicability was evaluated by detecting the content change of 5caC in the genomic DNA of rice seedlings after cultured with environmental pollutants . This work provides a novel platform for 5cadCTP detection, and it can also be applied to detect other cytosine derivatives with suitable recognition strategies.

Herein, the N-doped Ti 3 C 2 /TiO 2 nanostructure has been synthesized via hydrothermal treatment and following annealing in NH 3 . TiO 2 nanoparticles in-situ grow on the surface of Ti 3 C 2 spontaneously, resulting in the stable electron transport between TiO 2 and Ti 3 C 2 . Besides, Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets as conductive substrates make up for the poor conductivity of TiO 2 . The doping of N in Ti 3 C 2 /TiO 2 composite further improves the electrical conduction. The ultimate N-doped Ti 3 C 2 /TiO 2 composite achieves a higher specific capacitance of 737.4 F g −1 than Ti 3 C 2 (324.4 F g −1 ) at 0.5 A g −1 . More importantly, the composite displays a high specific capacitance retention of 81 % over 12,000 cycles. Besides, the assembled symmetrical supercapacitor (SSC) manifests an excellent specific capacitance of 236.4 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and a comparable energy density of 32.8 Wh kg −1 at the power density of 500 W kg −1 . This work provides promising guidance for the fabrication of durable electrodes for energy storage application.
