Flexible dielectrics with exceptional dielectric properties are highly desirable for various electronic applications. In this study, we successfully fabricated CaCu 3 Ti 4 O 12 (CCTO)/Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/millable polyurethane (MPU) ternary composite films via a combination of mixing and hot compression techniques. The incorporation of 2D Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets at a mass fraction of 4 % significantly enhanced the dielectric properties of the composite films. Specifically, the dielectric constant at 100 Hz increased to 41.1, representing a 14.48 % improvement over the initial CCTO/MPU composite. Meanwhile, the dielectric loss remained low at 0.050, with only a marginal increase of 2.04 %. Additionally, the breakdown strength of the composite films was notably boosted to 19.15 kV/mm, demonstrating a 15.3 % enhancement. These findings highlight the substantial improvement in the dielectric performance of the CCTO/Ti 3 C 2 T x /MPU ternary composite films, showcasing their potential for high-performance electronic applications.

A proof-of-principle concept for free-electrodeposited anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) sensing of Cu 2+ is proposed by using Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/carbon black (Ti 3 C 2 T x @CB) nanohybrids as electrode materials. Owing to the high adsorption and reduction capability of Ti 3 C 2 T x towards Cu 2+ , Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene enables Cu 2+ to be immobilized and self-reduced directly to form Cu 0 on the Ti 3 C 2 T x @CB electrode surface. As a result an oxidation peak current appears from the re-oxidation of Cu 0 via differential pulse voltammetry. Carbon black (CB) was introduced to prevent Ti 3 C 2 T x Mxene aggregation and improve the related electron transfer as well as enhance their surface area. After optimizing various conditions, a considerable low limit of detection (4.6 nM) and a wide linear range (0.01–15.0 μM) for Cu 2+ were achieved at the working potential from − 0.3 V to 0.0 V (vs SCE). Relative standard deviation (RSD) of eight individual Ti 3 C 2 T x @CB electrodes is 3.72%, and the recoveries from tap water sample and lake water sample were in the ranges of 97.0–108% and 104–107%, respectively.

Despite the existing advances of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene as supercapacitor electrode material, its capacitance can be further enhanced through the composite strategy. In this work, the nitrogen-doped superhydrophilic carbon cloth (ENCC) was firstly prepared by N-doping of carbon cloth (CC), and then Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets were electrophoretically deposited to yield the binder-free Ti 3 C 2 T x(EPD) /ENCC as supercapacitor electrode material. As a result, the composite electrode exhibited an area-specific capacitance of 2080.1 mF·cm −2 at 1 mA·cm −2 current density. The analysis implied that the varying Ti valence states provided certain psedocapacitance to the capacitance of the as-prepared electrode, though the main contribution was still dominantly from the electric double layer capacitance (EDLC). Further, the assembled symmetric supercapacitor yielded a wide voltage window of 1.8 V, and a good cyclic stability with 91% capacitance retention after 10,000 charge/discharge cycles at 20 mA·cm −2 . Overall, the employed composite strategy enabled the good dispersion of the MXene flakes on the surface of the flexible substrate . Meanwhile, the large number of functional groups (-OH, -F, etc.) on the surface of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene interacted with the carbon layer through hydrogen bonding effects, which endows it as an ideal electrode for electrochemical capacitors .

As the emerging 2D materials, MXenes have been regarded as promising electrode materials in supercapacitor as power supply for wearable and portable electronic devices due to their metallic conductivity, hydrophilic feature, abundant functional groups, and large theoretical specific surface area etc. The capacity and rate capability of MXene-based electrodes is limited by the sheet restacking, hindering their further development. Herein, Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/graphene/carbon nanotubes (MXene/graphene/CNTs) flexible film was successfully fabricated by vacuum assisted filtration. Intercalation and confinement of graphene and carbon nanotubes between the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets could increase the spacing and specific surface area, alleviate the stacking of MXene nanosheets, thus enhancing the electrochemical properties. The prepared MXene/graphene/CNTs film possesses increased specific surface area, average pore size, pore volume (112.259 m 2 g −1 , 9.982 nm, 0.276 cm 3 g −1 ), compared to MXene (93.088 m 2 g −1 , 3.786 nm, 0.088 cm 3 g −1 ). Consequently, MXene/graphene/CNTs delivers high area specific capacitance of 1862.5 mF cm −2 at 1 mA cm −2 and excellent rate capability (1525 mF cm −2 , 81.88 % at 20 mA cm −2 ). Flexible asymmetric supercapacitor constructed with MXene/graphene/CNTs film and active carbon as positive and negative electrodes, and PVA/H 2 SO 4 gel as solid electrolyte, achieves an energy density of 133.75 μWh cm −2 at the power density of 750 μW cm −2 . In addition, there is still 94.9 % of the initial performance after cycling 8000 charge/discharge cycles at 10 mA cm −2 , corresponding to a single-turn decay rate down to 0.00019 %. Besides, this flexible supercapacitor manifests outstanding electrochemical stability at different bending times. These advantages make the flexible supercapacitor device very promising for wearable electronics applications.

Osmotic energy is a kind of blue energy that has recently been identified as an additional source of clean energy. Using a membrane-based reverse electrodialysis (RED) process, this blue energy can be obtained from acidic industrial wastewater with different proton concentration gradients. However, this process demands high-performance membrane that can withstand harsh environments, possessing the advantages of wide pH tolerance, high-temperature resistance and chemical stability, developing such membranes remain a challenge. Herein, we report a two-dimensional (2D) lamellar Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene membrane-based RED device for osmotic energy capturing from proton gradients. Such a membrane exhibits a typical surface-charge-governed ion transport feature. Moreover, the MXene membrane-based energy harvesting device holds the merits of outstanding pH and temperature resistance. It exhibits an output power density of 6.5 W/m 2 and also demonstrates stability over 200 h at pH = 0, which is 30% higher than the commercialization benchmark (5 W/m 2 ). The osmotic power density can be further enhanced to 11.1 W/m 2 at 330 K, demonstrating excellent thermal and chemical stability. This work can help better understand protons' transport behaviors in MXene membranes and open new avenues for applications in sustainable power conversion and wastewater treatment.

Engineering the spatial separation and transfer of photogenerated charge carriers has been one of the most enduring research topics in the field of photocatalysis due to its crucial role in determining the performances of photocatalysts. Herein, as a proof-of-concept, Ti3C2Tx MXene is coupled with a typical heterojunction of TiO2@CdS through a co-assembly strategy to boost electron pumping towards improving the photocatalytic efficiency. In addition to the band alignment-mediated electron transfer in TiO2@CdS–Ti3C2Tx heterojunctions, the plasmon-induced electric field enhancement of Ti3C2Tx is found to cooperate with the electron-reservoir role of Ti3C2Tx to extract photoinduced electrons. The synergistic dual functions of Ti3C2Tx promote multichannel electron transfer in TiO2@CdS–Ti3C2Tx hybrids to improve the photocatalytic efficiency. These results intuitively show that there is a wide scope to manipulate the spatial separation and transfer of photoinduced electrons by cultivating the fertile ground of Ti3C2Tx toward boosting the efficiency of solar-to-chemical conversion.

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbide Ti 3 C 2 T x is the most widely studied MXene and has shown excellent metal conductivity, high carrier mobility and rich surface functions due to its unique structure and characteristics, which can act as an ideal potential material for electronic devices. Herein, an electrochemical transistor sensor based on ultrathin Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene as a sensing channel was fabricated, which combined with Au nanoparticles (AuNPs)/Ti 3 C 2 T x nanocomposites functionalized gate electrode to realize the electrocatalytic oxidation of nitrite. Utilizing the high electron mobility of the Ti 3 C 2 T x channel and the outstanding electrocatalytic activity of the gate material, the transistor sensor achieved ultrasensitive detection of nitrite, including the urtralow detection limit down to 0.01 nM, which is lower than those of other available methods and wide linear range (0.01 nM-0.5 μM and 0.5 μM-5 mM). In addition, the Ti 3 C 2 T x -based device exhibited good selectivity, long-term stability and practicability, realizing the accurate detection of nitrite in natural lake water, which provided a new way for the highly sensitive monitoring of nitrite in environmental and food safety.

Ti3C2Tx MXene as a representative material in the emerging two-dimensional (2D) MXene family with high conductivity, abundant functional surface terminals, and large layer spacing is supposed to show specific semiconducting properties like other 2D graphene or transition metal dichalcogenides, thus extending Moore's law beyond silicon. However, despite extensive efforts, the design of Ti3C2Tx MXene based semiconductor materials often depends on the availability of traditional semiconductors to form heterojunctions, where Ti3C2Tx MXene is still in metallic characters and is not in dominant status in the heterojunctions. Here, we demonstrate semiconducting Ti3C2Tx MXene modified with dodecyl (−C12H26) groups, as functionalized Ti3C2Tx MXene possesses opened and typical layer-dependent bandgap. The new arising characteristics, red-shift of characteristic peaks, and intensity ratio of the A1g(C)/A1g(Ti, C, Tx) in Raman spectroscopy suggested the successful grafting of the −C12H26 groups on the Ti3C2Tx MXenes. In addition, the theoretical calculations by density functional theory, photoluminescence spectrum, together with photoelectric measurements of Ti3C2Tx-C12H26 MXene on different layers, show a tunable bandgap of 0.49–2.15 eV and superior photoresponse properties in fabricating near infrared photodetectors.

Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/Cu x O composites were prepared by acid etching combined with electrochemical technique. The abundant active sites on the surface of MXene greatly increase the loading of Cu x O nanoparticles, and the synergistic effect between the different components of the composite can accelerate the oxidation reaction of glucose. The results indicate that at the working potential of 0.55 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), the glucose sensor based on Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/Cu x O composite presents large linear concentration ranges from 1 µM to 4.655 mM (sensitivity of 361 µA mM −1 cm −2 ) and from 5.155 mM to 16.155 mM (sensitivity of 133 µA mM −1 cm −2 ). The limit of detection is 0.065 µM. In addition, the sensor effectively avoids the oxidative interference of common interfering species such as ascorbic acid, dopamine and uric acid. The sensor has good reproducibility, stability and acceptable recoveries for the detection of glucose in human sweat sample (97.5-103.3%) with RSD values less than 4%. Based on these excellent properties it has great potential for the detection of glucose in real samples. Graphical abstract

Solar steam generation (SSG) has been considered as a promising method to produce fresh water from seawater. Due to high light absorption and excellent chemical stability, carbon nanotube (CNT) has been widely used for SSG. However, it is still challenge to simultaneously realize high water evaporation rate and energy efficiency for CNT based solar steam generator. Herein, ultralight anisotropic Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/carbon nanotube (A-Ti 3 C 2 T x /CNT) aerogels are designed and fabricated for highly efficient SSG. The combination of CNT and Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene endows the hybrid aerogel with high light absorption and effective localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), resuting in enhanced light-to-heat conversion efficiency. The porous structure of aerogel leads to multiple scattering and absorption, further contributing to the photothermal conversion process. Moreover, the low thermal conductivity of aerogel structure effectively reduces the heat loss to environment. Through tailoring the anisotropic channel, the A-Ti 3 C 2 T x /CNT hybrid aerogel with average channel size of 80 μm possesses most efficient water transport due to the capillary effect and formation of intermediate water. Therefore, the A-Ti 3 C 2 T x /CNT hybrid aerogel exhibits high average light absorption of 95.68% in the wavelength range of 200–2500 nm, excellent water evaporation rate of 2.10 kg m −2 h −1 under 1 sun irradiation (1 kW m −2 ) with a high energy efficiency of 93.4%, and remarkable durability with 7 days continuous water evaporation. The A-Ti 3 C 2 T x /CNT hybrid aerogel also shows high resistance to salt crystallization due to its high salt transport flux of 1.90 kg m −2 h −1 . This work offers a prospective strategy for constructing highly efficient solar steam generator with stable performance for practical application in seawater desalination.

The 2D Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene anchored with magnetic particles has garnered significant attention due to its superior electromagnetic shielding performance and low reflection coefficient. However, current research on MXene-anchored magnetic particles faces several challenges, including complex fabrication processes, difficulty in controlling compositional ratios, the predominant use of spherical magnetic particles. In this work, by employing surfactants, FeCo alloy and Ni flakes were uniformly anchored onto MXene, the preparation process of the composite is simple and facilitates better control over the ratios of individual samples. Due to the unique structure formed by the intercalation of FeCo alloy and Ni flakes within the MXene layers, M-FC-N-35 exhibits an average electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of 61.2 dB within the Ku-band and maintains a reflection coefficient as low as 0.69. Additionally, the M-FC-N-35 composite was applied to the surface of the temperature sensor casing. It was found that under an electromagnetic field strength of 200 V/m and within a frequency range of 6–18 GHz, the temperature measurement deviation was reduced to 9.35 % of that of the sensor without the shielding material, demonstrating high electromagnetic interference resistance. This work provides guidance for simplifying the fabrication process of MXene composites with magnetic metals and enriching the system of electromagnetic shielding materials.

Rational and smart design of hydrogen (H 2 ) sensors especially those featured with flexibility and light weight is highly desirable, to meet the requirements for future development of portable H 2 sensors. In this work, we demonstrate a novel paper film H 2 sensor employing Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets with Pd colloidal nanoclusters (Pd CNC) as the activator. The MXene@ Pd CNC paper film was facilely prepared via an all-colloidal solution-based vacuum-filtration process, which is flexible, light-weight and endowed with a compact, glossy surface. The as-obtained MXene@ Pd CNC film sensor displayed moderate H 2 response at room temperature at either flat or bent states. Specially, the MXene@Pd CNC film sensor delivered a response time of (32 ± 7) s and a sensitivity of S = (23.0 ± 4.0)%@4% H 2 . In addition, the MXene@Pd CNC sensor enabled “in-situ-mode” H 2 detection directly along a piece of paper film with desired size. The strong H 2 adsorption into lattice of ultrafine Pd CNC altered the work function thus induced the electron doping of MXene, which explained the gas sensing mechanism. Therefore, the facilely designed MXene@Pd CNC sensor is believed to contribute to development of future portable and wearable sensing electronics.
