In this study, novel honeycomb-like morphology MXene@PDA/MOF composites were prepared in situ on the surface of MXene@PDA (polydopamine), combined with 2-methylimidazole and Zn 2+ . The characterizations of morphology and electrochemical properties show that MXene@PDA/MOF has large specific surface areas and outstanding electroconductibility. Furthermore, the MXene@PDA/MOF-based sensor was fabricated to detect l-cysteine (L-Cys). The response of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) shows the current intensity increases as l-Cys concentration. Under the optimum conditions, DPV response shows a fine linear relationship with l-Cys concentration in a range of 0.01 – 5.0 μmol L −1 with the detection limit of 3.74 × 10 −9 mol L −1 . This sensor was used to detect l-Cys in real samples with recoveries of 100.34 % – 101.68 %. Thus, the MXene@PDA/MOF-based electrochemical sensor exhibits excellent selectivity, reproducibility, stability, and practicability.

Interlayer and defect engineering significantly affects the electrical conductivity and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding of Ti3C2Tx MXene. Previous studies have prioritized the size of the intercalant over its synergy with chemical affinity, limiting the elucidation of the intercalation mechanism and the precise control of the interlayer spacing (d-spacing). Herein, we synthesize MXene aerogels with a tunable d-spacing and defect density using a series of amine molecules of different sizes and chemical affinities as intercalants and cross-linkers. Particularly, the intercalation of p-phenylenediamine (PPD) increases the d-spacing of MXene from 0.960 to 1.642 nm. Simultaneously, the increased d-spacing contributes to an increased defect density within the Ti–Ti layer. Hence, the PPD@MXene aerogel exhibits reduced surface electric field intensity and increased internal polarization loss, resulting in absorption-dominated EMI shielding. The absorptivity reaches 0.92, far exceeding the reported shielding materials, with a shielding effectiveness of 50.4 dB. This study provides a theoretical foundation and preliminary guidance for the development of interlayer-engineered MXene shielding materials.

Flexible pressure sensors embody outstanding mechanical and sensing performance, particularly in the fields of personal health monitoring and artificial intelligence, while catering to multifunctional applications resilient against harsh weather conditions. Among these, Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene-based aerogel materials with high surface area and excellent conductivity have attracted a lot of attention. However, there are big challenges in improving the mechanical properties at low densities and designing multi-level pore structures . Herein, the prepared silane monomers (MP) are firstly synthesized by 3-(Trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (MPTES) and polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA), then polydopamine-modified silicon dioxide (PDA-SiO 2 ) nanofibers employed with MXene nanosheets form covalent cross-linking nanofiber aerogels. The multi-level stable structure improves both mechanical strength and elasticity. The assembled MXene/MP/PDA-SiO 2 pressure sensors exhibit a high sensitivity of −0.83 kPa −1 , a rapid response time of 48 ms, a minimum 1 % strain detection limit, and reliable stability over 10,000 cycles. Furthermore, these sensors can be used for human motion detection and health diagnostics, and show good personal thermal management performance. This work holds a promising candidate for the next generation of multifunctional flexible electronic devices.

The conductive polymer composites (CPC) with elevated levels of conductivity typically exhibit enhanced electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI SE), however, this enhancement is often paralleled by an augmented risk of secondary electromagnetic (EM) pollution, attributable to the increased EM reflection. Developing a facile method to construct an eco-friendly CPC for EMI shielding that simultaneously exhibits low reflection and high shielding performance remains a promising yet challenging pursuit. Moreover, excellent shielding materials should possess exceptional thermal management capabilities to protect individuals or equipment under extreme conditions. Herein, we have engineered the MXene/polyurethane (MXene/PU) sponge (MPS) modules characterized by the hierarchical porous structure. Through the strategic modular combination of impedance-matching and impedance-mismatching modules tailored for different application contexts, the customizable gradient MXene/PU sponge (GMPS) facilitates achieving a balance of exceptional average EMI SE (44.6 dB), a low reflection coefficient (R = 0.18), and superior photo/electrothermal conversion capability. Furthermore, both experimental results and finite element analyses are adopted to explore the effect of the arrangement order of GMPS on EMI shielding performance. Leveraging the green, health-conscious, and flexibly customizable approach, it manifests tremendous potential across various areas, including intelligent residences and multifunctional integrated systems.

Solar thermal collectors based on phase change materials (PCMs) are important to promote the civilian use of sustainable energy. However, simultaneously achieving high photothermal efficiency and rapid heat transfer of the PCM carrier typically involves a high proportion of functional materials, contradicting a satisfying energy storage density. In this work, a surface-engineered anisotropic MXene-based aerogel (LMXA) integrated with myristic acid (MA) to produce phase change composites (LMXA-MA) is reported, in which the laser-treated surface composed of the hierarchically-structured TiO 2 /carbon composites act as a light absorber to improve solar absorption (96.0%), while the vertical through-hole structure allows for fast thermal energy transportation from surface to the whole. As a result, LMXA-MA exhibits outstanding thermal energy storage (192.4 J·g −1 ) and high photothermal conversion efficiency (93.5%). Meanwhile, benefiting from the intrinsic low emissivity of MXene material, thermal radiation loss can be effectively suppressed by simply flipping LMXA-MA, enabling a long-term temperature control ability (605 s·g −1 ). The excellent heat storage property and switchable dual-mode also endow it with an infrared stealth function, which maintains camouflage for more than 240 s. This work provides a prospective solution for optimizing photothermal conversion efficiency and long-term thermal energy preservation from surface engineering and structural design.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have attracted much attention due to their high specific capacity. However, at high loads and rates, the polysulfides conversion rate and ion transport of batteries are slow, limiting their commercialization. This work reports zero-dimensional (0D) bimetallic MOF derivatives grown in situ on two-dimensional (2D) MXene by electrostatic adsorption (FeCo@Ti 3 C 2 ). The 0D bimetallic structure effectively avoids the stacking of MXene while providing a dual catalytic site for polysulfides. The 2D structure of MXene also provides a large number of pathways for the rapid diffusion of lithium ions. This 0D-2D heterostructured heterogeneous catalyst with bimetallic synergistic active sites efficiently immobilizes and catalyzes polysulfides, providing a fast charge transfer pathway for the electrochemical reaction of lithium polysulfides. The Li-S battery with this multifunctional 0D-2D heterojunction structure catalyst has outstanding high rate capacity (703 mAh g −1 at 4 C at room temperature and 555 mAh g −1 at 2 C at 0 °C), fascinating capacity at high load (5.5 mAh cm −2 after 100 cycles at a high sulfur content of 8.2 mg cm −2 ). The study provides new ideas for the commercialization of high-efficiency Li-S batteries.

Repairing larger defects (> 5 mm) in peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) remains a significant challenge when using traditional artificial nerve guidance conduits (NGCs). We propose a novel approach that combines 4D printing technology with poly(L-lactide-co-trimethylene carbonate) (PLATMC) and Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets, thereby imparting shape memory properties to the NGCs. Upon body temperature activation, the printed sheet-like structure can quickly self-roll into a conduit-like structure, enabling optimal wrapping around nerve stumps. This design enhances nerve fixation and simplifies surgical procedures. Moreover, the integration of microchannel expertly crafted through 4D printing, along with the incorporation of MXene nanosheets, introduces electrical conductivity. This feature facilitates the guided and directional migration of nerve cells, rapidly accelerating the healing of the PNI. By leveraging these advanced technologies, the developed NGCs demonstrate remarkable potential in promoting peripheral nerve regeneration, leading to substantial improvements in muscle morphology and restored sciatic nerve function, comparable to outcomes achieved through autogenous nerve transplantation.

Various commercial and industrial products widely use highly toxic eight-carbon-chain perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), posing a significant threat to the health of living organisms. In this study, the electrochemical detection of PFOS was achieved by developing a carbon paste electrode (CPE) using the Mo 2 Ti 2 AlC 3 MAX phase. Mo 2 Ti 2 AlC 3 was synthesized and directly used to construct the CPE. The electrochemical performance of the prepared sensor was tested using various electrochemical techniques, such as cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and amperometric titration. The developed electrochemical sensor exhibited two linear ranges from 0.001 to 0.09 μM and from 1.1 to 62.6 μM, with a detection limit of 0.04 nM. The sensor demonstrated high sensitivity, measuring 145.1 μA μM −1 cm −2 , and a response time of 5 s for PFOS quantification at a working potential of 0.3 V. Additionally, the sensor demonstrated outstanding resistance to typical interfering chemicals. The applicability and reliability of the developed sensor for PFOS determination were further tested in real samples, yielding recoveries in the range of 92.6–108.2%, with relative standard deviation (RSD) values between 1.8% and 3.7%. The Mo 2 Ti 2 AlC 3 MAX phase-based electrochemical sensor is simple, rapid, sensitive, and cost-effective, making it a promising approach for the quantification of PFOS in environmental water and soil samples.

As a crucial biomarker for the early warning and prognosis of liver cancer diseases, elevated levels of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) are associated with hepatocellular carcinoma and germ cell tumors. Herein, we present a novel signal-on electrochemical aptamer sensor, utilizing AuNPs–MXene composite materials, for sensitive AFP quantitation. The AuNPs–MXene composite was synthesized through a simple one-step method and modified on portable microelectrodes. As signal molecules, AFP aptamers were conjugated with methylene blue (MB) and immobilized on the electrode surface. When interacting with AFP, conformational changes in the aptamer–target complex caused MB to approach the electrode, and the electrochemical signal was enhanced through signal-on mechanisms. The developed sensor demonstrated high sensitivity and selectivity for AFP, with a log-linear relationship defined as 1–300 ng/mL, and the LOD was 0.05 ng/mL (S/N = 3). The method was applied to laboratorial and real clinical samples and presented satisfactory selectivity, reproducibility, and long-term stability. The proposed high-performance sensor highlights the potential of electrochemical aptamer sensors in improving the warning capabilities in disease management.

MXene, a two-dimensional nanomaterial, has metal conductivity, high electronegativity, functionalized with surface groups, which make it widely applicable in catalysis and biosensing. However, studies on the principle of enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) by MXene composites and the improvement of their performance in catalyzing the ECL reaction are still in their infancy. In this study, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are obtained by mild reductive reduction and loaded in situ on the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene surface to form the composites (AuNPs@MXene). In oxygenated PBS test buffer, AuNPs@MXene enhance the ECL emission of silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) with aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) properties as luminophore. Approximately 7.5-fold enhancement of ECL signals is obtained by using two ECL enhancement strategies: an efficient AIECL emitter and a co-reaction accelerator. The special nucleic acid structure with “Three Way Junction (TWJ)” enables an ultra-sensitive detection of microRNA, providing an efficient and ultra-sensitive method for microRNA detection. The biosensor achieves a wide detection range of microRNA-21 from 100 aM to 1 nM, with a low detection limit of 31 aM, and exhibits excellent stability, selectivity and high reproducibility in real samples.

The issues of inherent low thermal conductivity , slow heat transport rate and easy leakage are critical challenges for accelerating solar-thermal energy harvesting and storage for organic solid-liquid phase change materials (PCMs). Aerogel carriers with thermal conductivity enhancement based on ice temple methods show favorable potential for PCMs solar thermal applications. Comparing with disordered and unidirectional freezing, bidirectional freezing can assemble efficiently in multiple dimensions and result in long-range ordered structures. In this paper, bacterial cellulose/polyvinyl alcohol/MXene aerogels were constructed by bidirectional freezing. The anisotropic PCMs composites were from vacuum impregnation PEG into aerogel networks. By controlling crystallization and growth of ice crystals through the dual temperature gradients , the PCMs composites obtained enhanced heat transfer efficiency in horizontal and vertical directions. Bidirectional aligned PCMs with PDMS wedge angle of 0° and 20° exhibit high thermal conductivity of 0.716 W m −1 K −1 and 0.768 W m −1 K −1 , which were 184% higher than that of PEG , and photothermal conversion efficiency of 55.17% and 76.91%. Remarkably, the PCMs composites with a 20° PDMS wedge angle also exhibited a high PCM loading capacity (96.3%) and a high enthalpy (157.7 J/g). The results show that bidirectional anisotropic PCMs composites have excellent overall performance and are expected to improve solar thermal application.

Flexible biomimetic photonic structures, capable of achieving dynamic radiation modulation in both solar and infrared (IR) bands as required, are increasingly catering to low-energy thermal management and sustainable development. Herein, the cephalopod-inspired composite film of styrene-ethylene-butene-styrene block copolymer (SEBS)/titanium dioxide (TiO 2 )-Mxene has been designed and prepared. Analogous to squid leucophores, the SEBS/TiO 2 layer of is able to regulate solar reflection and transmit infrared radiation. Mimicking squid iridocytes, the Mxene layer can regulate infrared reflection and absorb sunlight. The optimal structural parameters of the film and the regulation contrast were estimated via theoretical analysis. The theoretical design also illustrates that the two layers collaborate without interference. According to the optimal parameters, the Mxene-SEBS/TiO 2 film was prepared. A dynamic regulation between radiative heating and cooling, namely, the solar reflection between 38 % and 66 % and infrared emissivity between 68 % and 89 % can be realized via mechanical actuation under 200 % strain. As the solar radiation is ∼650 W/m 2 , the composite film achieves ∼6.2 °C heating/∼1.4 °C cooling of the skin under mechanical actuation. When reducing the natural convection loss, the film further achieves ∼11.6 °C heating/∼0.8 °C cooling of the skin. This work provides a novel system and strategy for radiation modulation in solar-infrared bands for possible applications in thermal management.
