MXenes, as a 2D planar structure nanomaterial, were first reported in 2011. Due to their large specific surface area, high ductility, high electrical conductivity, strong hydrophilic surface, and high mechanical flexibility, MXenes have been extensively explored in the development of various functional materials with desired performances. This review is aimed to summarize the current progress in synthesis, modification, and applications of MXene-based composite films as electrode materials of flexible energy storage devices. In the synthesis of MXenes, the evolution and exploration of etchants are emphasized. Furthermore, in order to develop MXene-based composite films, the components used to modify the MXene nanoflakes, including 0D, 1D, and 2D nanomaterials, are summarized, and the perspectives and research direction of such materials are also discussed.

Developing MXene-based electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding composite films with exceptional wet mechanical properties is crucial to address the limitation of conventional MXene-based EMI shielding composite films in humid environments. Herein, we present a fabrication strategy for Janus-structured MXene-based EMI shielding composite films with exceptional wet mechanical and Joule heating performances. Through depositing tannic acid-modified MXene (TM) on maleic anhydride-modified lignin-containing cellulose nanofibril (MLCNF) film using a scalable vacuum filtration and hot-pressing strategy.

Nanofluidics-based reverse electrodialysis offers a promising approach for harnessing the osmotic energy that exists between saline and fresh water, thereby providing a sustainable source of power. Nevertheless, the key obstacle to realizing a commercially viable power output stems from inadequate ion permselectivity in nanofluidics. Here, we engineer dual asymmetric MXene-based composite nanofluidics (DA-MXCNs) composed of a negatively charged, porous MXene layer and a positively charged, confined MXene layer, which strategically incorporates asymmetric channel dimensions and opposing charge distributions.

Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have attracted significant attention due to their high surface area and adjustable pore structure, which enable potential applications across various fields. However, their practical application is often hindered by poor electrical conductivity and limited structural stability. Integrating MOF with two-dimensional transition metal carbides/nitrides (MXene) offers a powerful strategy to overcome these limitations, synergistically combining the porous architecture of MOF with the exceptional conductivity and mechanical robustness of MXenes.

The rapid advancement of highly integrated electronics demands next-generation electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials that combine lightweight, ultrathin, flexible, and mechanically robust properties with exceptional shielding effectiveness (SE) to mitigate signal crosstalk and ensure device reliability. In this work, we demonstrate the fabrication of high-performance EMI shields using highly conductive, additive-free aqueous TiCT (T = O, OH, Cl, F) MXene dispersions synthesized under both harsh and mild etching conditions. These dispersions were engineered into freestanding thin films and functionalized cotton fabrics vacuum-assisted filtration, enabling tunable EMI shielding properties through precise control of etchant chemistry, flake size, microstructure, thickness, and MXene loading.

The thermophysical properties of novel Graphene/MXene-based fluids have great potential for enhancing the efficiency of solar energy systems. However, optimizing these properties remains challenging due to the complex interactions between nanomaterial composition and system conditions. This study presents a new hybrid framework that combines response surface methodology (RSM), heuristic and metaheuristic optimization, and advanced decision-making techniques to enhance the thermal conductivity (TC) and dynamic viscosity (DV) of these fluids.
