Abstract
MXenes, a family of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides and nitrides have garnered significant interest owing to their unique properties, making them suitable for electrode materials in flexible and wearable supercapacitors (SCs). A significant portion of MXenes has predominantly been utilized in a three-electrode configuration, lacking practical applications. Herein, we have conducted a comprehensive review of recent advancements concerning the practical application of MXenes in two-electrode SCs. Critical considerations such as expanding the potential/voltage window, optimizing electrolytes, electrode selection, limitations of both electrodes and electrolytes, and exploration of electrode hybridization have been thoroughly investigated. Moreover, we have discussed the latest progress in MXenes and their prospective contributions to advancing SC applications. The future aspects of MXene-based SCs have been proposed, thereby facilitating advancements in energy storage technologies and their tangible integration into real-world electronic applications.
