Abstract

With the advent of electronic devices and electric vehicles, the demand for better electrochemical energy storage devices is ever rising. Since the discovery of 2D nanomaterials, their research has continued to expand to exploit their many unique properties. MXene, a group of 2D transition metal carbides, nitrides, or carbonitrides, has proved itself an outstanding nanomaterial for applications in electrochemical energy storage devices. It possesses extraordinary mechanical and electrochemical properties, whilst having unique chemistry that enables its penetration into the applications of lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries, zinc supercapacitors, dyesensitized solar cells, and other energy storage devices. Nonetheless, the commercialization of MXenes is not without challenges. This article reviews the various synthesis methods of MXene and their implications, along with their energy storage and conversion applications in solid-state electrolytes. The synthesis mechanism, MXene structure, elemental composition, morphology, physical and chemical stability and electrochemical properties of MXene synthesized with different methods are closely examined and analysed. The challenges that MXene faces are also discussed, along with solutions and their future perspectives.
