Preparation, reaction mechanism and microwave-absorbing application of functional transition metal carbide/nitride ceramic materials

Abstract

The explosive growth of wireless communications and electronic devices has brought electromagnetic radiation's harmfulness and hidden trouble to light, which has a major impact on electrical equipment's ability to function normally. MXene, a material with favorable features like conductivity, a unique two-dimensional multiple-layer structure and abundant surface functional groups, has made it a viable contender for high-performance microwave-absorbers. This article introduces the synthesis strategy of MXene/MXene-based materials and their parent phase MAX, comprehensively summarizes and analyzes the current progress in the study on the microwave-absorbing properties of MXene/MXene-based materials, analyzes the main problems and bottlenecks. Future research directions for MXene microwave-absorbing are discussed in detail.
