Abstract

Abstract The versatile property suite of two-dimensional MXenes is driving interest in various applications, including energy storage, electromagnetic shielding, and conductive coatings. Conventionally, MXenes are synthesized by a wet-chemical etching of the parent MAX-phase in HF-containing media. The acute toxicity of HF hinders scale-up, and competing surface hydrolysis challenges control of surface composition and grafting methods. Herein, we present an efficient, room-temperature etching method that utilizes halogens (Br2, I2, ICl, IBr) in anhydrous media to synthesize MXenes from Ti3AlC2. A radical-mediated process depends strongly on the molar ratio of the halogen to MAX phase, absolute concentration of the halogen, the solvent, and temperature. This etching method provides opportunities for controlled surface chemistries to modulate MXene properties.

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.
