A comprehensive overview of the synthesis of high-quality MXenes

In Transition Metal Carbides and Nitrides (MXenes) Handbook: Synthesis, Processing, Properties and Applications, a team of esteemed researchers provides an expert review encompassing the fundamentals of precursor selection, MXene synthesis, characterizations, properties, processing, and applications. You’ll find detailed discussions of the selection of MXene members for specific applications, as along with summaries of the physical and chemical properties of MXenes, including electrical, mechanical, optical, electromechanical, electrochemical, and electromagnetic properties.

The authors delve into both successful and unsuccessful synthesis examples, offering detailed explanations of various failures to facilitates a comprehensive understanding of the reasons behind unsuccessful syntheses. Additionally, they provide detailed examinations on the characterizations of MXenes, empowering readers to develop a sophisticated understanding of how to achieve optimal quality, flake size, oxidation states, and more. You’ll also find:

  • A thorough review of common applications of MXenes, including electrochemical applications, electromagnetic interference shielding, communications devices, and more
  • Comprehensive explorations of solution and non-solution processing of MXenes
  • Practical discussions of the synthesis of high-quality MXene powders, colloidal solutions and flakes, including information about MXene precursors
  • Fulsome treatments of MXene precursor selection and their impact on MXene quality

Tailored to meet the needs of graduate students, researchers, and scientists in the areas of materials science, inorganic chemistry, and physical chemistry, the Transition Metal Carbides and Nitrides (MXenes) Handbook will also benefit biochemists and professionals working in drug delivery.
