Mxenes are a class of two-dimensional (2D) inorganic compounds composed of transition metal carbides, carbonitrides, or nitrides. They have a unique layered structure. These materials are known for their exceptional electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, and chemical stability, making them highly promising for a variety of applications including energy storage, sensing, catalysis, and electromagnetic interference shielding. The surface termination groups on Mxenes, such as hydroxyl, oxygen, or fluoride, further regulate their properties, enhancing their tunability for specific applications.
MXene represents a novel class of 2D materials characterized by the general formula Mn+1XnTX, where M denotes an early transition metal like Sc, Ti, V, or Cr, X signifies carbon or nitrogen, and TX corresponds to surface termination groups such as -OH, -O, or -F. MXene is produced through the selective removal of the A element from MAX phases, with hydrofluoric acid (HF) being the most commonly employed etchant.
MAX Phase
MAX phases are a class of layered carbides or nitrides characterized by a hexagonal crystal structure, represented by the general formula Mn+1AXn. In this formula, M denotes a transition metal, A corresponds to an element from the IIIA or IVA groups, and X signifies carbon and/or nitrogen. Based on the value of the index n, MAX phases are categorized into three main categories: 211, 312, and 413 groups. Due to their layered crystal structure, MAX phases combine the properties of ceramics and metals and can be widely used in many fields.
MAB Phase
MAB phases, as an evolution of MAX phases, have garnered significant interest due to their superior thermo-mechanical properties. Similar to MAX phases, MAB phases exhibit a broad range of structural variations and belong to a family of layered ternary structures crystallizing in an orthorhombic system. In these structures, M represents a transition metal such as Mo, W, Cr, or Fe, A is predominantly aluminum, and B corresponds to boron. Their atomically laminated crystal structures consist of transition metal boride (M-B) layers interspersed with aluminum layers, contributing to their distinctive properties.
