It is still a great challenge for the flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors to simultaneously achieve wide linearity and high sensitivity. Herein, we propose a high-performance textile pressure sensor based on chitosan (CTS)/MXene fiber. The hierarchical “point to line” architecture enables the pressure sensor with high sensitivity of 1.16 kPa −1 over an ultrawide linear range of 1.5 MPa. Furthermore, the CTS/MXene pressure sensor possesses a low fatigue over 1000 loading/unloading cycles under 1.5 MPa pressure load, attributed to the strong chemical bonding between CTS fiber and MXene and excellent mechanical stability. Besides, the proposed sensor shows good antibacterial effect benefiting from the strong interaction between polycationic structure of CTS/MXene and the predominantly anionic components of bacteria surface. The sensor is also applied to detect real-time human action, an overall classification accuracy of 98.61% based on deep neural network-convolutional neural network (CNN) for six human actions is realized.

To improve the photocatalytic performance of single-phase Bi 2 WO 6 , the heterojunction construction is usually employed to effectively separate and transport photo-induced carriers. Herein, MXene/Bi 2 WO 6 heterojunction (NB2 and VB2) with face-to-face contact and hierarchical structure was constructed by growing ultrafine Bi 2 WO 6 nanosheets on the surface of two-dimensional MXene (Nb 2 C and V 2 C) materials. Compared with the original Bi 2 WO 6 , the hybrids exhibited a larger specific surface area (42.17 m 2 ∙g −1 for NB2, 50.15 m 2 ∙g −1 for VB2), and displayed significant enhancements in the photodegradation of anionic MO (13.8-fold, 6.5-fold), cationic RhB (9.1-fold, 4.5-fold), and neutral phenol (8.5-fold, 6.1-fold), respectively. This is mainly attributed to the heterostructures via face-to-face coupling which can facilitate the tuning of the photoresponsive properties and internal energy level structure, as well as the generation of free radicals ( • O 2 - , • OH, and h + ) for the stepwise redox process in photodegradation. Therefore, this work is expected to expand the diverse use of Non-Ti 3 C 2 MXene in photocatalysis, meanwhile provide important guidance for the harmless treatment of organic pollutants.

Designing a functional filler in a polymer matrix for effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and flame retardancy is of great importance in electronic devices. Achieving optimized distribution of fillers in polymer to build a conductive network for EMI shielding and intact barrier for flame retardancy is still a great challenge since the reported fillers usually exist as a disorder or even aggregation state. Herein, a porous carbon nanotube (CNT) bridged MXene (MXene/CNT) skeleton with electrical continuity and barrier integrity was designed by using a facile freeze-drying method. Benefiting from the rich hierarchical pores and excellent conductivity of MXene/CNT, the obtained MXene/CNT supported epoxy (EP) composite exhibits an effective EM shielding value of 34.7 dB. Furthermore, the EP composite shows improved flame retardancy than pure EP. Specifically, compared to pure EP, the EP composite with a low content of MXene/CNT (1.7 wt %) shows a decreased heat release rate (19.17%), smoke production rate (22.73%), CO production rate (25.21%) and CO2 production rate (21.26%). This promising strategy provides a way to fabricate other advanced polymer composites.

The rapid growth of industries and population has led to severe water pollution, especially from the oil and dyes pollution. Recently, MXene with hydrophilicity layer structure and excellent adsorption capacity has been regarded as a promising material for high efficiency dye adsorption and oil–water separation. In this study, aminated-SiO 2 nanorods and monolayer Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene were combined by a facile self-assembly method to prepare a new composite (NS x /MXene) for dye adsorption and oil–water separation. The results show that the adsorption capacity of the NS x /MXene composite was enhanced due to the introduction of aminated-SiO 2 nanorods with more active sites. Especially, the NS 2 /MXene composite has a maximum adsorption capacity up to 4532.5 mg g −1 for AB74 dye, which is attributed to the electrostatic interaction between NS 2 /MXene and AB74 dye molecules. In addition, NS 2 /MXene modified polyurethane sponge (NS 2 /MXene@PU) was prepared by immersing dried polyurethane (PU) sponge in the NS 2 /MXene suspension. The NS 2 /MXene@PU sponge has a characteristic of superhydrophilicity in air and superoleophobicity in water, and shows a high separation flux of 27.44 × 10 4 L m −2 h −1 for a cyclohexane-water mixture. After 30 cycle experiments, the separation flux of NS 2 /MXene@PU for the cyclohexane-water mixture can still be 21.66 × 10 4 L m −2 h −1 , indicating an excellent cycling stability of NS 2 /MXene@PU. Hence, this new NS 2 /MXene material has excellent application prospects in dye adsorption and oil–water separation.

The catalytic properties of noble metal nanoparticles can enhance the adsorption capacity of sensors for target gases when compounded with MXene. In this study, a nanocomposite of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and MXene was prepared using a simple self-reduction process, and its microstructure, electrochemical valence states, specific surface area, and other properties were characterized. Gas sensitivity tests conducted on the Au@MXene-20 sensor revealed excellent selectivity for NH3 at room temperature. The response value to 100 ppm NH3 at room temperature was 15.1%, approximately three times that of pure MXene, with response and recovery times of 118 s and 219 s, respectively. Moreover, the composite sensor exhibited a low detection limit, demonstrating a response of 3.496% to 5 ppm NH3 at room temperature. Additionally, the Au@MXene-20 sensor possessed good repeatability, long-term stability, and moisture resistance. Therefore, the Au@MXene-20 sensor studied and prepared in this paper has been proven to be well-suited for NH3 detection in harsh environments.

Because of electromagnetic wave pollution, there is a growing need for electromagnetic wave absorption materials. An effective strategy is to optimize their microstructure and composition. In this study, hollow polypyrrole (PPy) nanocubes (HP) are synthesized using zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) as sacrificial templates. Subsequently, HP/Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene (HPM) composites are fabricated through electrostatic self-assembly and freeze-drying methods. The resulting 3D conductive network and numerous heterogeneous interfaces enhance interfacial polarization, and the hollow morphology facilitates electromagnetic wave multiple reflections, thereby significantly improving electromagnetic wave absorption performance. HPM-2 realizes a minimum reflection loss (RL min ) of −53.45 dB and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 6.52 GHz at 1.84 mm. HPM-3 achieves a RL min of −72.28 dB at 2.75 nm and an EAB of 4.7 GHz at 1.61 mm. Moreover, the simulation procedures are applied to investigate the radar cross-section (RCS) attenuation. It is worth noting that with a detection angle (θ) of 0°, HPM-3 possesses a maximum RCS reduction of 35.19 dB m². This work presents a straightforward method for preparing HPM composites and lays the foundation for exploring the efficient electromagnetic wave absorption properties of conducting polymer and MXene-based composites and their derivatives.

In light of the exponential growth of flexible human-computer interactions and telecommunications, it is becoming increasingly important to develop a high-sensitivity strain sensor to monitor human movement. Herein, the biocompatible, adhesive, and flexible Tannic acid-Fe 3 O 4 @MXene-poly(methacryloxyethyl sulfobetaine/acrylamide) (TFM) hydrogel has been prepared to realize the dual-functional applications in strain sensitive sensor and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. The polymer network and 2D conductive filler MXene together construct the conductive network inside the hydrogel. The interpenetrating network and hydrogen bond between poly(acrylamide) and poly(methacryloxyethyl sulfobetaine) chain enhance the mechanical property of hydrogel, which is also improved by the complexation between Fe 3 O 4 and the catechol groups of tannic acid. Benefiting from the excellent electrical conductivity (∼1.33 S/m) and mechanical property of the TFM hydrogels, the strain sensor displays compressive strain (∼77.6 %) and elongation (∼308.5 %), adhesion (∼16 kPa), compression sensitivity (∼42.6 Pa −1 ), gauge factor (GF = 2.38), and cyclic stability (∼50 cycles). TFM hydrogels can monitor strain distribution sensing, pulse beating and human movement detection. Moreover, the TFM hydrogel exhibits an absorption-predominant EMI shielding performance with an effective value of ∼25.2 dB. This work provides a new inspiration for the development of multifunctional hydrogels in the fields of artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, and EMI shielding technology.

The development of flexible, thin, multifunctional materials represents a strategic advancement for the creation of next-generation wearables that offer both electromagnetic shielding and thermal management. This study introduces the fabrication of a multilayer MXene/polyimide (MXene/PI) composite film , demonstrating significant electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) and photothermal conversion efficiency through a layer-by-layer casting technique. When the MXene content is 29.7 wt%, the alternating multilayer MXene/PI composite film can reach a high EMI SE of 23.3 dB at 0.26 mm thickness, and when the MXene content is 45.7 wt%, the EMI SE can reach a maximum of 40.7 dB, which has a significant advantage over other materials. This superior performance exceed that of alternative materials, owing to the multilayer MXene construction that magnifies electromagnetic wave reflection losses. Furthermore, the film displays a rapid and sensitive photothermal response under laser irradiation , achieving temperatures up to 93°C at a 0.5 W/cm 2 density. Impressively, at 0.4 W/cm 2 , it maintains a stable long-term saturation temperature over 40 cycles, showing its potential in applications such as photothermal sensors, personal heating, and muscle protection.

With the rapid development of modern communication technology, the exploration of flexible wearable shielding fabrics with exceptional electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance has emerged as an utmost priority to safeguard both human beings and electronic devices from the detrimental effects of electromagnetic radiation. Herein, a scalable multilayer stacking assembly method is proposed to prepare uniform MXene/CuNWs/Tartaric Acid (TA) composites-coated fabrics. MXene, as a new type of material, can achieve higher electron and ion transfer rates. However, it is prone to oxidation in air, leading to poor stability. Benefiting from the synergistic effect of tartaric acid, the MXene/CuNWs/TA-coated fabrics exhibit certain oxidation stability and corrosion resistance, while retaining the inherent flexibility and breathability of natural polymer textiles. Furthermore, the multilayer stacking structure works perfectly with the MXene/CuNWs conductive network, enabling multiple reflections and absorptions of electromagnetic waves internally, thus effectively diminishing energy transmission. The modified fabrics exhibit a low sheet resistance of 3.25 ± 0.12 Ω/sq and a good EMI shielding performance of 41.2 dB at X-band. Therefore, MXene/CuNWs/TA fabrics with high shielding performance are expected to reach their potential in wearable electronic products.

The development of highly effective chitosan-based hemostatic materials that can be utilized for deep wound hemostasis remains a considerable challenge. In this study, a hemostatic antibacterial chitosan/N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide (NHEMAA)/Ti 3 C 2 T x (CSNT) composite cryogel was facilely prepared through the physical interactions between the three components and the spontaneous condensation of NHEMAA. Because of the formation of strong crosslinked network, the CSNT cryogel showed a developed pore structure (~ 99.07 %) and superfast water/blood-triggered shape recovery, enabling it to fill the wound after contacting the blood. Its capillary effect, amino groups, negative charges, and affinity with lipid collectively induced rapid hemostasis, which was confirmed by in vitro and in vivo analysis. In addition, CSNT cryogel showed excellent photothermal antibacterial activities, high biosafety, and in vivo wound healing ability. Furthermore, the presence of chitosan effectively prevented the oxidation of MXene, thus enabling the long-term storage of the MXene-reinforced cryogel. Thus, our hemostatic cryogel demonstrates promising potential for clinical application and commercialization, as it combines high resilience, rapid hemostasis, efficient sterilization, long-term storage, and easy mass production.
