Abstract

MXenes are an innovative class of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides and nitrides that have attracted considerable research interest owing to their exceptional physicochemical characteristics, including high electrical conductivity, large specific surface area, and tunable surface chemistry. MXenes and their composites are considered as the strong candidates for advanced energy storage technologies. This review provides a detailed analysis of recent developments in the utilization of MXene-based composites in four battery systems: lithium-ion, sodium-ion, zinc-ion, and aluminum ion. This review elucidates the distinctive benefits imparted by MXene composites, with the most recent progress in the electrode and device performance of each battery system, and rigorously analyzes the barriers to their widespread application. Additionally, this review addressed the challenges of MXene-based batteries and identifies prospective research avenues for improving their efficiency, operational durability, and practical scalability.
