Abstract

The rational construction of Ti3C2Tx MXene-based composites has been deemed as a popular way to improve their electrochemical energy storage performances owing to the unique two-dimensional (2D) structure, excellent conductivity, and good flexibility. However, it remains a major challenge to assemble mesoporous carbon onto Ti3C2Tx with fewer oxygen-containing groups by using surfactants with short hydrophilic segments. In the work, we propose a molecular engineering assembly strategy for the growth of N,P co-doped mesoporous carbon onto Ti3C2Tx nanosheets (NPMC/Ti3C2Tx) under the assistance of phytic acid by using melamine-formaldehyde resin and pluronic P123 (PEO20PPO70PEO20) as the carbon/nitrogen source and soft template, respectively. The detailed investigations reveal that phytic acid with abundant hydroxyl groups can effectively enhance the hydrogen bond interactions among P123, carbon precursor, and Ti3C2Tx nanosheets, thus ensuring the efficient assembly of mesoporous carbon onto Ti3C2Tx. The obtained NPMC/Ti3C2Tx composite demonstrates a set of merits, including cylindrical mesopore, N,P co-doping, and a good combination of mesoporous carbon and Ti3C2Tx nanosheets. As a result, it exhibits an improved lithium-ion storage performance, delivering a high reversible capacity of 556.3 mA h g−1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g−1. The present work provides a feasible molecular engineering assembly route for the rational design of high-performance Ti3C2Tx MXene-based electrodes.

介孔碳在Ti3C2Tx MXene上的分子工程组装用于增强锂离子存储
摘要:Ti - c2t - MXene基复合材料具有独特的二维结构、优异的导电性和良好的柔韧性,因此合理构建Ti - c2t - MXene基复合材料被认为是提高其电化学储能性能的一种流行方法。然而,通过使用具有短亲水段的表面活性剂,将介孔碳组装到含氧基团较少的ti3c2tx上仍然是一个主要的挑战。在这项工作中,我们提出了一种分子工程组装策略,以三聚氰胺甲醛树脂和pluronic P123 (PEO 20 PPO 70 PEO 20)分别作为碳/氮源和软模板,在植酸的帮助下,在Ti 3c2tx纳米片上生长N,P共掺杂的介孔碳(NPMC/Ti 3c2tx)。详细的研究表明,含有丰富羟基的植酸可以有效地增强P123、碳前驱体和ti3c2tx纳米片之间的氢键相互作用,从而保证介孔碳在ti3c2tx上的高效组装。所获得的NPMC/ ti3c2tx复合材料表现出一系列优点,包括圆柱形介孔,N,P共掺杂,以及介孔碳和ti3c2tx纳米片的良好结合。因此,它表现出改进的锂离子存储性能,在0.1 ag - 1下循环100次后提供556.3 mA h g - 1的高可逆容量。本研究为合理设计高性能ti3c2txmxene电极提供了一条可行的分子工程组装路线。
