Herein, we have prepared SiO 2 particles uploaded MXene nanosheets via in-situ hydrolysis of tetraetholothosilicate. Due to the large number of groups at the edges of MXene, SiO 2 grows at the edges first, forming MXene@SiO 2 composites with a unique core-rim structure. The tribological properties of MXene@SiO 2 as lubricating additive in 500 SN are evaluated by SRV-5. The results show that MXene@SiO 2 can reduce the friction coefficient of 500 SN from 0.572 to 0.108, the wear volume is reduced by 73.7%, and the load capacity is increased to 800 N. The superior lubricity of MXene@SiO 2 is attributed to the synergistic effect of MXene and SiO 2 . The rolling friction caused by SiO 2 not only improves the bearing capacity but also increases the interlayer distance of MXene, avoiding accumulation and making it more prone to interlayer slip. MXene@SiO 2 is adsorbed on the friction interface to form a physical adsorption film and isolate the friction pair. In addition, the high temperature and high load induce the tribochemical reaction and form a chemical protection film during in the friction process. Ultimately, the presence of these protective films results in MXene@SiO 2 having good lubricating properties.

The development of efficient materials for adsorption desulfurization has attracted much attention for the safety of humans and the ecosystem. Metal–organic frameworks have shown promise in removing organic sulfur compounds in liquid fuels, while another star material – MXene has rarely been applied in this field. In this study, Ti3C2Tx MXene/Cu-MOF composites with different MXene contents (3.3%, 6.7%, and 13.3%) were synthesized via an in situ precipitation method. Characterization showed that the Cu-MOF was successfully coated on the surface of Ti3C2Tx MXene and partially embedded between the MXene nanosheets, restraining the agglomeration of both MXene and the Cu-MOF. The optimal composite-3.3%MXene/Cu-MOF presented the largest surface area of 166.6 m2 g−1. Compared to MXene and Cu-MOF, 3.3%MXene/Cu-MOF exhibited an enhanced adsorption performance for methyl phenyl sulfide in the model fuel with an equilibrium adsorption capacity of 87.4 mg g−1. Furthermore, the effects of adsorption parameters, adsorption kinetics, adsorption isotherms, and the adsorption mechanism, and regenerative performance of 3.3%MXene/Cu-MOF were comprehensively discussed. A pseudo-second order kinetic model and the Langmuir adsorption isotherm were found to better explicate the adsorption behavior on 3.3%MXene/Cu-MOF, which exhibited a theoretical maximum adsorption capacity of 183.9 mg g−1. This work hopes to shed light on the material design for adsorption desulfurization.

Supercapacitors (SCs) are promising energy supply systems for various electronics. In this work, we detailed the in situ growth of FeCo2S4 on MXene for asymmetric SCs. Notably, the digital model was first built to explore the relationship between wt (FeCo2S4) and capacitance performance, realizing the maximum theoretical capacity (3635.7 F g–1) prediction. Furthermore, it was discovered that the synergistic effect of the FeCo2S4/MXene heterojunction could dramatically improve conductivity and structural stability, which accelerated charge transmission at the electrode/electrolyte interface, resulting in a significant enhancement in electrochemical performance. The FeCo2S4/MXene electrode exhibited a higher capacitance of 2415.3 F g–1 and a prominent long-term stability of about 90.5%. And the FeCo2S4/MXene//AC declared an impressive energy density of 68.7 Wh kg–1 at a power density of 800 W kg–1. The FeCo2S4/MXene composite systems have great potential for advanced SC systems due to their facile assembly and remarkable electrochemical performance.

Two-dimensional (2D) Ti3C2Tx MXene materials show great potential in electrochemical and flexible sensors due to their high electrical conductivity, good chemical stability, and special delaminated structure. However, their thermal properties were rarely studied, which remarkably affect the stability and safety of various devices. Here, we fabricated a suspended MXene drum resonator photothermally driven by a sinusoidally modulated laser, measured the thermal time constant by demodulating the thermomechanical motion, and then calculated the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of the MXene film. Experiments show the thermal conductivity of the film increases from 3.10 to 3.58 W/m·K while the thermal diffusivity from 1.06 × 10–6 to 1.22 × 10–6 m2/s when temperature increases from 300 to 360 K. We also confirm the film thermal conductivity is mainly contributed by phonon transport rather than electron transport. Furthermore, the relationship between the mechanical and thermal properties of the MXene films was disclosed. The thermal conductivity decreases when film strain increases, caused by enhanced phonon scattering and softening of high-frequency phonons. The measurements provide a noninvasive method to analyze the thermal characteristics of suspended MXene films, which can be further extended to the thermal properties of other 2D materials.

The fabrication of ultralight high-performance flame-retardant composites significantly reduces fire risk for buildings. Flame retardation of porous polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) aerogels with directional arrangement is difficult. Herein, the polyvinyl alcohol/ 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide derivative/two-dimensional (2D) MXene (PVA/DiDOPO/MXene) composite aerogel was prepared by ice template one-way freezing process. PVA-DiDOPO4 composite aerogel with an oriented porous structure reaches the V-1 level at the UL-94 test. Moreover, the peak heat release rate (pHRR) value of PVA-DiDOPO4 reduces to 452.26 (W/g) from 482.88 (W/g) of pure PVA. In addition, PVA/DiDOPO/MXene composite aerogel has improved thermal decomposition properties such as the maximum decomposition temperature (T max1 ) of the PVA-DiDOPO4 sample attains 319.92 °C from pure PVA of 302.90 °C. The design strategy of PVA combined 2D MXene nanosheet and DOPO derivatives construct oriented porous composite aerogel paves the way for the fabrication and customization of ultralight flame-retardant polymer composites, which can be expected to be applied in construction and reduce fire risk.

Phosphopeptide enrichment methods based on commercial TiO2 suffer from difficulties in regulating intermolecular interactions, resulting in low coverage rate and the loss of information on multiphosphorylation sites, thereby limiting comprehensive phosphoproteomic analysis. In this work, MXene Ti3C2Tx was incorporated into the design of enrichment materials, with its surface structure functionalized and regulated to address the low elution efficiency of TiO2 for multiphosphorylated peptides. Upon oxidation treatment, the Ti3C2Tx material formed numerous uniformly distributed TiO2 nanoparticles on the surface of Ti3C2Tx-O, providing abundant affinity sites (Ti–O) for selective phosphopeptide enrichment. The polycrystalline structure and rich oxygen vacancies of the material effectively regulated its binding affinity with phosphate groups, achieving simultaneous high-efficiency enrichment of both monophosphorylated and multiphosphorylated peptides. Its performance was significantly superior to that of commercial TiO2 and IMAC materials. This study presents great promise for the practical application of comprehensive phosphoproteomic analysis in the future and broadens the application of MXene in the biological field.

Two-dimensional (2D) nanofluidic channels have shown great potential for efficient ion separation due to the synergy of the charge microenvironment and confined 2D planar channels. However, current 2D channels mainly rely on postdecoration with ion-specific recognition molecules, while the regulation of the membrane structure and the role of the channel itself have been overlooked. Herein, we constructed two types of membranes to demonstrate the critical role of building units in 2D lamellar membranes. By tuning the lateral size of MXene nanosheets, we prepared a large-lateral-sized MXene membrane (LMM)(∼5.47 μm) and a small-lateral-sized MXene membrane (SMM)(∼524 nm) to systematically study the ion transport behavior. The results showed that the LMM exhibited preferential transport of monovalent ions (Li+, Na+, and K+) while impeding permeation of multivalent ions (Ca2+, Mg2+, and Al3+), contributing to the selectivity of Li+/Mg2+ ≈ 12. In contrast, the SMM allowed for the fast transport of all monovalent/divalent ions, leading to poor selectivity (e.g., Li+/Mg2+ ≈ 2.3), which could be attributed to the abundant nonselective defects in the SMM. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the weakest interaction between MXene and Li+ determines the selective transport of Li+ over other ions. This work highlights the importance of building defect-free 2D membranes for ion sieving using nondecorated 2D nanofluidic channels.

Soil colloid is a nonnegligible factor when evaluating the environmental risk of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) in the groundwater. In this study, the environmental fate of an emerging ENP (Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene) in the groundwater was investigated for the first time, which currently poses a severe environmental risk due to its cytotoxicity but has received little attention. The colloidal dispersion stability and degradation kinetics of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene in the groundwater were evaluated by considering the effects of soil colloids prepared from sodium humate (SH), montmorillonite (MT), and a natural soil (NS) under variable solution chemistry. The results showed that the affinity of soil colloids with Ti 3 C 2 T x followed an SH > MT > NS sequence. Increasing SH concentration led to Ti 3 C 2 T x disaggregation by enhancing the electrical and steric repulsive forces, while MT and NS resulted in hetero-aggregation because of the elevated collision frequency. SH and MT enhanced the critical coagulation concentrations of Ti 3 C 2 T x by 100 and 10 folders, respectively, via surface coating process, while NS slightly reduced due to the bridging effects induced by the soluble cations. The soil colloids promoted Ti 3 C 2 T x degradation compared with their absence and in an SH > MT ≫ NS sequence. SH and MT were through forming Ti–O–C and Si–O–Ti bonds with Ti 3 C 2 T x via their carboxyl and hydroxyl groups, respectively, rendering the Ti 3 C 2 T x surface more reactive and faster degradation. NS showed a weak promotion effect because of its less affinity with Ti 3 C 2 T x and limited organic matter and clay contents with hydroxyl and carboxyl groups . This study demonstrated the unstable environmental behaviors of Ti 3 C 2 T x in the groundwater and mitigated its environmental risk concerns.

Antibiotic desalination is a crucial purification process that selectively removes salts from antibiotic-containing streams to enhance product stability and reduce downstream processing costs. While 2D metal–organic framework (MOF) membranes offer molecular sieving potential, their aqueous instability due to weak van der Waals stacking limits practical implementation. We address this chemical engineering challenge via electrostatically dominated assembly of positively charged ZnBDC-NH 2 MOF nanosheets (+40 mV) and negatively charged MXene (−25 mV). This strategy synergizes MOF’s size-exclusion pores with MXene’s fast water-transport nanochannels, while interfacial hydrogen bonding enhances structural robustness. The optimized membrane achieves exceptional antibiotic desalination performance: 97.59 % chloramphenicol rejection and an unprecedented water permeance of 269.3 L m −2 h −1 bar −1 , while maintaining stability over 120 h. At a comparable antibiotic rejection level, this water permeance is approximately 5–10 times higher than that of most previously reported membranes. Crucially, it demonstrates superior antibiotic/salt selectivity and maintains performance across varied feed concentrations. This work establishes a scalable electrostatic assembly platform for next-generation membranes in practical antibiotic wastewater treatment.

Intercalation pseudocapacitance is the key point to achieving the balance between the volumetric capacitance and the rate performance of energy storage. However, the low pseudocapacitive reactivity of the active center still limits the energy density of the pseudocapacitance devices. Herein, we propose a strategy that regulates the p - d hybridization of confined MXene via the co-doping of B and O atoms (BO-MXene) for outstanding electrochemical performance. Both experiments and density functional theory (DFT) reveal that the inner doped O atoms in low 2 p orbital energy strengthen the hybridization of Ti and electron-deficient B in MXene for high retention of B atoms, weaken the Ti-O covalency in MXene. As a result, the weakened p - d hybridization of Ti and O for the outer surface and strengthened p - d hybridization of Ti and B for the inner, promote the adsorption of protons and electron transfer, respectively. Further, the BO-MXene-based hybrid supercapacitors achieve a significant volumetric energy density of 56.86 Wh L -1 at 25.6 kW L -1 . This electronic structure via tuning the p - d hybridization in MXene proposes a new path for designing proton-confined intercalation pseudocapacitance.

Carbon nanofibers can be widely used in the field of electromagnetic wave absorption due to corrosion resistance, low density and good chemical stability. Here, we report a strategy to achieve strong microwave absorption capability by adjusting the crystallinity of carbon nanofibers containing Al 2 O 3 and TiO 2 . TiO 2 with Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene as a precursor decreases the crystallization temperature of Al 2 O 3 from 1400 °C to 800 °C in the carbon nanofibers. The diameter distribution of carbon nanofibers is uniform, though the surface of carbon nanofibers is getting rough with Ti 3 C 2 T x content increasing. The minimum reflection loss of carbon nanofibers is -55.78 dB at a thickness of 4.32 mm; the effective absorption bandwidth reaches 5.41 GHz (12.59-18 GHz) at a thickness of 1.67 mm, almost covering the Ku band. The excellent microwave absorption performance can be attributed to the synergistic effect of the non-crystalline carbon matrix and crystalline Al 2 O 3 /TiO 2 , in which the former improves impedance matching with free space, while the latter enhances the attenuation capability to the electromagnetic wave.

Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene has been regarded as a promising candidate for advanced microwave absorption materials. However, the microwave absorbing performance of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene is suppressed by the single dielectric loss mechanism and impedance mismatch because of the high conductivity. To effectuate a good absorption capability of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene, this paper constructs a heterostructured Co/Ti 3 C 2 T x hybrid by atomic layer deposition of magnetic Co nanoparticles on Ti 3 C 2 T x nanosheets . The microstructures, magnetism , and microwave absorption behaviors of the Co/Ti 3 C 2 T x hybrids are investigated systematically. The results show that the frequency-dependent electromagnetic parameters of the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene become tunable by controlling the content of Co decorations, which are conducive to both magnetic loss and impedance matching . The Co/Ti 3 C 2 T x hybrid with ultralow Co decoration content (only 1.52 wt%) achieves the minimum reflect loss of −54.32 dB at a thin matched thickness of 1.29 mm, and the corresponding effective absorption bandwidth with reflection loss below −10 dB reaches 4.29 GHz. The atomic layer deposited magnetic metal nanostructures provides an effective strategy for preparing MXene-based hybrids which not only have high absorption efficiency but also significantly reduce the use of magnetic metals.
