Abstract

Various procedures are described in the preparation of MXenes by using the etching methods with HF or other fluoride solutions. The effects of the reaction conditions on properties of the MXenes are discussed. In addition, various properties of the synthesized MXenes, including chemical, mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical and magnetic properties, are presented.
