The enhanced effect of metal catalysts is crucial to achieve advanced performance of hydrogen storage system. Rational design of catalysts with superior catalytic activity is significant to regulate the re-/hydrogenation kinetics of MgH 2 . Herein, Ti 3 C 2 -supported praseodymium(III) fluoride (PrF 3 ) nanoparticles (PrF 3 /Ti 3 C 2 ) composite was prepared by hydrothermal method , which exhibited superior catalytic activity toward hydrogen storage of MgH 2 . The onset temperature of dehydrogenation was reduced to 180 °C after adding 5 wt% PrF 3 /Ti 3 C 2 , corresponding to a reduction of 107 °C compared with pristine MgH 2 . About 7.0 wt% hydrogen was rapidly desorbed within 3 min at 260 °C and 6.6 wt% hydrogen was absorbed within 36 s at 200 °C for MgH 2 -5 wt% PrF 3 /Ti 3 C 2 . Moreover, MgH 2 -5 wt% PrF 3 /Ti 3 C 2 exhibited an excellent capacity retention of 92.5% even after 10 cycles. Experimental results reveal that the electron transfer among Ti-species (Ti 0 , Ti 2+ , and Ti 3+ ) occurred due to the striking enhanced effect of PrF 3 on Ti 3 C 2 MXene during the reaction process, and the synergistic action between Ti-species and PrF 3 are responsible for the markedly enhanced hydrogen storage properties of MgH 2 . This study is helpful to the design and optimization of hydrogen storage materials for mobile application.

Multicomponent heterogeneous Ti 3 C 2 transition metal carbide (MXene)-based materials are receiving extensive research attention due to their interesting synergistic interactions and catalytic properties. However, the morphology-controllable synthesis of heterostructures as structural stabilizers for Ti 3 C 2 MXene remains a challenge owing the complicated synthesis procedure. In this work, a kind of ternary heterogeneous nanomaterials CuCo 2 S 4 /CuS/Ti 3 C 2 MXene with a nanorod/nanoplate/nanosheet hybrid architecture is constructed through a one-step low-temperature solvothermal method. The well-designed ternary one-dimensional (1D)/two-dimensional (2D)/2D CuCo 2 S 4 /CuS/Ti 3 C 2 MXene heteromaterials exhibit synergistic improvements in substrate-catalyzed reactions for electrochemical acetylcholinesterase (AChE) biosensor . The Michaelis-Menten constant for the Nafion/AChE/CuCo 2 S 4 /CuS/Ti 3 C 2 MXene/GCE biosensor is 228 μM, which is smaller than ones reported in previous literatures, indicating a higher affinity of the fabricated enzyme biosensor to acetylthiocholine chloride. The biosensor exhibits a well linear relationship with chlorpyrifos concentration ranging from 2.852 × 10 −12 M to 2.852 × 10 −6 M. The multicomponent 1D/2D/2D CuCo 2 S 4 /CuS/Ti 3 C 2 MXene heteromaterial may shine a light in more electrochemical applications.

The bioelectronic tongues based on taste receptors have been emerging with human-like taste perception. However, the practical applications of the receptor-based biosensors were restricted by their narrow and low dynamic ranges. Here, a novel immobilization strategy based on [email protected] /Ti 3 C 2 MXene was developed to immobilize the umami ligand binding domain (T1R1-VFT), to fabricate an umami biosensor for umami substances detection. Through the synergic effect of [email protected] and Ti 3 C 2 MXene, the capacity to load T1R1-VFT was effectively increased, and the response signal was also amplified by approximately 3 times. The proposed biosensor showed an ultrawide dynamic range of 10 −11 –10 −3 M, and a high upper limit of detection, which was closer to the human taste threshold and suitable for detecting foods rich in umami substances. Additionally, the biosensor was successfully applied to detect real samples and analyze the synergistic effects of binary umami substances.

Copolymers of polyimide and polyuria with different fractions were synthesized. Furthermore, Ti 3 C 2 MXene two-dimensional material was obtained by etching Ti 3 AlC 2 with hydrofluoric acid. It was demonstrated that the copolymers displayed outstanding tribological performance than that of pure polymers and the as-synthesized Ti 3 C 2 MXene were endowed with outstanding dispersion in above copolymer. Importantly, when used as a solid lubricant additive at different temperatures, the two-dimensional material showed excellent friction reducing and antiwear properties. That is, blending even a small fraction of Ti 3 C 2 MXene into the copolymer dramatically reduced the friction and wear of the friction pair. SEM mappings and XPS analyses revealed that a continuous tribofilm consisting of a high fraction of tribo-chemical products and TiO 2 was established on the rubbed surfaces, which were significant in improving the lubrication performance at different temperatures.

As an emerging zero-dimensional nanomaterial, MXene quantum dots (MQDs) have aroused the interest of researchers because of their unique physical and chemical characteristics. Here, a straightforward hydrothermal strategy was used to successfully produce the amino-functionalized Ti3C2 MQDs. The functionalized Ti3C2 MQDs exhibited bright blue fluorescence (FL), which was derived from its size effect and surface defects. In addition, Ni2+ can bind to the amino groups on the surface of Ti3C2 MQDs. The absorption of the excitation light by the light-absorbing substance causes nickel ions to effectively quench the photoluminescence of Ti3C2 MQDs, which can be explained by the internal filter effect (IFE). At the same time, the strong affinity of histidine (His) for Ni2+, which is absorbed by His to form a stable complex, causes Ni2+ to dissociate from the Ti3C2 MQD surface and restore the FL. Thus, a fluorescent sensor for detecting the His content in serum was developed. Overall, this work provides a method for the detection of His and shows that the Ti3C2 MQDs have great potential in biomedical and biosensing applications.

Increasing the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers and preventing the hydrogen back oxidation are two key challenges in photocatalytic hydrogen production. Herein, we report a promising PtO@Ti 3 C 2 /TiO 2 photocatalyst to overcome these two challenges by in-situ growing TiO 2 nanosheets on Ti 3 C 2 MXene (to improve charge separation) and depositing PtO nanodots (to diminish hydrogen back reaction) for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen production. Within this design principle, the photogenerated electrons and holes in the PtO@Ti 3 C 2 /TiO 2 composites flow in opposite direction into PtO and Ti 3 C 2 respectively, resulting in effective separation of the photogenerated electrons and holes. Beyond, the higher oxidation state of PtO nanodots also largely suppresses the undesirable hydrogen back oxidation reaction. Thereby the PtO@Ti 3 C 2 /TiO 2 composite demonstrates remarkable hydrogen production efficiency. Our work here indicates that rational design of dual co-catalysts could not only promote the separation of photogenerated carriers for enhanced hydrogen production, but also inhibit the reverse reaction of hydrogen production.

Main observation and conclusion Ti 3 C 2 MXene serving as superior electrical conductors presents more specific performance such as transparency, conductivity than gold (Au), and even could form a heterostructure with active materials of the functional devices. Here, a Ti 3 C 2 MXene-Te microplate van der Waals heterostructure based transparent near-infrared photodetector (PD) is exploited. Compared with Au-Te PD, the on-off ratio of the Ti 3 C 2 -Te PD is improved by seven orders of magnitude and reaches 9.51 × 10 7 under 1064 nm laser illuminations. Benefiting from the utilization of flexible PET substrate and Ti 3 C 2 conductors in manufacturing PD devices, the Ti 3 C 2 -Te PD exhibits excellent flexibility with no noticeable response change after being bent for different states and times. Moreover, 63% transmittance of the fabricated PD devices over the 500—1000 nm wavelength range is obtained. All the above results demonstrate the tremendous potential in wearable optoelectronics.

Flexible conductive composites can be used as wearable strain sensors, which are widely used in the fields of new-generation robotics, electronic skin, and human detection. However, how to make conductive composites that simultaneously possess flexibility, stretchability, self-healing, and sensing capability is challenging research. In this work, we innovatively designed and prepared a silicone polymer conductive composite. MXenes and amino poly(dimethylsiloxane) were modified by small biomolecules via an esterification reaction and a Schiff base reaction, respectively. The modified MXenes are uniformly dispersed, which endows the composite with good electrical conductivity. The reversibility of multiple hydrogen bonds and imine bonds in the composite system makes it have ideal tensile properties and high-efficiency self-healing ability without external stimulation. The conductive composite containing 10 wt % A-MXenes showed an elongation of 81%, and its mechanical strength could reach 1.81 MPa. After repair, the tensile properties and the electrical conductivity could be restored to 98.4 and 97.6%, respectively. In addition, the conductive composite is further evaluated for the value of wearable strain sensors. Even after cut-healed processes, the conductive composite can still accurately detect tiny human movements (including speaking, swallowing, and pressing). This kind of self-healing MXene/PDMS elastomers based on the modification of small biomolecules has great potential as wearable strain sensors. This simple preparation method provides guidance for future multifunctional flexible electronic materials.

Abstract In this work, Ti 3 C 2 MXene, a novel two-dimensional nanosheet, was introduced to waterborne polyurethane (WPU) coatings to prepare a composite coating. First, MAX phase materials were in situ etched by HF acid and further intercalated by water molecules to obtain exfoliated single-layer MXene nanosheet. And then, composite coatings were prepared via solution-blending low addition (0–0.4 wt%) of MXene, self-prepared waterborne polyacrylate emulsion (PAE) and isocyanate hardener, applying on Q235 mild steel. Results of AFM, XRD SEM and SEM–EDS confirm that single-layer MXene nanosheets with large lateral-to-thickness ratio are successfully prepared and achieved homogenous distribution within WPU matrix. With 0.4 wt% MXene incorporated, the WPU/Ti 3 C 2 MXene composite coatings reach a lowest corrosion current of 2.143 × 10 –6 A/cm 2 , a decrease of one order of magnitude compared with blank WPU (1.599 × 10 –5 A/cm 2 ) and own an excellent UV-blocking property (almost block the whole UV light).

As a 2D material, Ti 3 C 2 (MXene) has been recently used as electrodes for electrochemical capacitors. Herein, a two-step procedure is used to obtain a highly opened layer structure for Ti 3 C 2 , which differs from the methods used in the literature for synthesizing exfoliated MXene. First, the mild NH 4 HF 2 etching agent is used to prepare the regular Ti 3 C 2 MXene. Second, KOH is added into the obtained solution for K + to intercalate the MXene. The K + intercalation is found to greatly increase the (002) crystal planar spacing of the Ti 3 C 2 from 10.8 to 12.4 Å. More importantly, this K + -intercalated MXene exhibits a highly opened layer structure, whereas the regular MXene only has a partially opened layer structure. Consequently, the former is expected to allow much more active sites exposed to liquid electrolyte, and also facilitates remarkably higher ion and electron transport efficiency. To investigate their electrochemical capacitance properties, the regular and K + -intercalated Ti 3 C 2 MXenes are used to fabricate binder-free electrodes on nickel foams by an electrophoretic deposition method. The K + -intercalated MXene-based electrode is found to have twice higher specific capacitance than the regular MXene. Furthermore, the K + -intercalated Ti 3 C 2 MXene-based electrode exhibits an excellent cyclic stability.

The big challenging issues in photocatalytic H2 evolution are efficient separation of the photoinduced carriers, the stability of the catalyst, enhancing quantum efficiency, and requiring photoinduced electrons to enrich on photocatalysts’ surface. Herein, Ti3C2 MXene quantum dots (QDs) possess the activity of Pt as a co-catalyst in promoting the photocatalytic H2 evolution to form heterostructures with g-C3N4 nanosheets (NSs) (denoted g-C3N4@Ti3C2 QDs). The photocatalytic H2 evolution rate of g-C3N4@Ti3C2 QD composites with an optimized Ti3C2 QD loading amounts (100 mL) is nearly 26, 3 and 10 times higher than pristine g-C3N4 NSs, Pt/g-C3N4, and Ti3C2 MXene sheet/g-C3N4, respectively. The Ti3C2 QDs increase the specific surface area of g-C3N4 and boost the density of the active site. Besides, metallic Ti3C2 QDs possess excellent electronic conductivity, causing the improvement of carrier transfer efficiency.

The integration of gas sensors with small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has attracted widespread attention in atmospheric chemistry, industrial emission monitoring and environmental protection. However, conventional metal oxide semiconductor gas sensors currently installed on UAVs exhibit issues such as inadequate sensitivity, long response times, and unsatisfactory stability. In this direction, NiCo2O4 inserted two-dimensional layered Ti3C2 MXene have synthesized using a facile hydrothermal method for CO detection. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations were first employed to explore CO adsorption behaviors, revealing that the adsorption energy of gas molecules is significantly reduced after the combination of NiCo2O4 and MXene. The optimized MXene incorporation effectively prevents nanoparticle agglomeration, significantly increasing the specific surface area and exposing abundant active sites for gas adsorption. As a result, the hybrid sensor exhibited more than five times higher response toward 100 ppm CO at 110 °C with shorter response time (39 s) than pristine NiCo2O4. Through in situ Raman spectroscopy analysis, we elucidated the rapid adsorption–desorption of gas molecules on heterostructures. Furthermore, we successfully implemented the developed NiCo2O4/Ti3C2 MXene sensor on a compact drone platform, enabling real-time three-dimensional spatial mapping of CO concentrations. This work not only advances the design of high-performance gas sensing materials but also showcases the practical viability of drone-mounted MXene sensors for real-time 3D air quality mapping, paving the way for smart environmental monitoring systems.
