2D MXene nanocomposites: electrochemical and biomedical applications

Abstract

In this review article, key factors about the 2D MXene nanomaterials in electrochemical and biomedical applications have been reviewed and discussed.

Green Synthesis of Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles and Nanocomposites for Photocatalytic Antimicrobial, Antibiofilm and Antifungal Applications

“…Physical synthesis methods of nanomaterials mainly involve crushing and difficult physical conditions, which require advanced devices with high energy consumption [43]. Current advances in chemical techniques for the synthesis of nanomaterials have increased biological and environmental hazards due to the use of toxic chemicals and heavy metals, including Ti, attached to the synthesised nanomaterials [44][45][46]. Compared with physical and chemical methods, biological synthesis of nanomaterials has significant advantages, including high biocompatibility and no high energy consumption for synthesis processes [47].…”

Versatile MXenes as electrochemical sensors for heavy metal ions and phenolic moiety-containing industrial chemicals: recent development and prospects

“…The various types of MXenes that are synthesized based on the MAX phase can be referred to in detail from other reports in the literature. 86…”

Ti3C2Tx and copper sulfide composite nanofluids with a hierarchical structure for sustainable and efficient solar light–thermal conversion

“…26 The transition metal M can be Ti, Ta, Nb, Mo, Zr, etc. , and X represents C or N. 27–29 MXene possesses a surface rich in functional groups, making it suitable for various applications such as batteries, catalysis, 30 biomedicine 31,32 and seawater desalination. 33–35 Recently, the unique characteristics of MXene plasmons have been discovered, including superior light absorption ability and a localized surface plasmon resonance effect.…”
