A major challenge for the effective use of Ti-based MXenes in applications with harsh environmental conditions is their poor resistance to oxidation. Here, authors report an air-stable Ti3C2T x composite with extracted bentonite able to endure high-temperature annealing in air by an oxygen adsorption competition mechanism.
