Review MXenes as a new type of nanomaterial for environmental applications in the photocatalytic degradation of water pollutants
Abstract
Abstract Two-dimensional titanium carbide (MXene) with an adjustable bandgap (0.92 ∼ 1.75eV), excellent structural stability, high conductivity and hydrophilicity has always been a hotspot in the field of environmental photocatalysis. However, the rapid recombination of light-excited carriers of a single photocatalytic material decreases quantum efficiency and photocatalytic performance. The modification of MXene could overcome these problems to improve photocatalytic properties. Among various improvement strategies, the composition of MXene heterostructure and Schottky junction is an effective and straightforward strategy for adjusting electronic structure and accelerating photocatalytic performance. This review aims to design typical, cost-effective heterojunctions and Schottky junctions and their progress, mechanisms, and trends in environmental organic pollutants' degradation. This review detailed the heterogeneous catalytic mechanism of MXene-based photocatalysts for the degradation of organic pollutants. It is discussed the way to improve the photocatalytic performance of MXene by constructing heterojunction and Schottky junction. The surface properties, catalyst performance and pollution management of various MXene-based catalysts were compared, and then some dilemmas and application strategies of MXene development were analyzed in depth. This review can open up ideas for new approaches and provide valuable clues for designing MXene as a cocatalyst to develop more effective photocatalysts for practical application in environmental pollution management.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
