2D Metal Carbides
A new two‐dimensional (2D) metal carbides material (known as MXene) has expanded rapidly since the discovery of titanium carbide in 2011. Its chemical formula can be represented by Mn+1XnTx, where M represent the transition metal (such as Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Sc, etc.), and X means C or/and N, n is generally 1–3, Tx refers to surface groups (such as O2−, OH−, F−, etc.). Due to its high specific surface area and high conductivity, MXenes has shown great potential in the fields of energy storage, catalysis, adsorption, sensors, and biomedicine. In this chapter, we have comprehensively summarized the latest progress in MXene research. Firstly, we review the synthesis methods and then discuss the structure characterizations, mechanical, electrical, and optical properties of MXenes. Finally, the application of MXenes in catalysis, energy storage, environmental management, biomedical, gas sensing, and other fields were described.
