Abstract:MXenes, which have good reinforcing and toughening effects, can serve as excellent polymer additives. However, the mechanism whereby MXenes act has not been revealed. In this study, to understand the reinforcement effect of Tin+1Cn on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) from an atomistic perspective, we used molecular dynamics to conduct unidirectional tensile simulations of PMMA composites reinforced with monolayer Ti2C and Ti3C2 sheets. The results showed that Ti3C2 can more significantly improve the mechanical p… Show more
