Abstract:
      MXenes have shown promise for applications in energy storage, catalysis, sensing, wearable devices and biomedicine because of their high specific surface areas, excellent electrical conductivities and adjustable structures and surface terminations. MXenes are produced through the selective etching of A-layer atoms from MAX phases, and the compositions and properties of MXenes are mainly determined by the MAX precursors and etching methods. Therefore, in this mini review, the effects of the MAX precursors on the properties of MXenes are first addressed; the common etching methods for the preparation of MXenes, including HF etching and fluorine-free etching methods, are then reviewed; Lastly, the current challenges and future developments of MXenes synthesis technologies are discussed.
