Abstract

Two-dimensional (2D) inorganic compounds, MXenes, are the most promising candidate for chemical sensors and environmental remediation. Since the first synthesis of Ti3C2Tx MXene from the Ti3AlC2 MAX phase in 2011, 2D materials have been attracting significant attention from a wide range of scientific communities because of their unique physicochemical properties. The attractive properties of MXenes motivated us to explore the new wave of front-end research and applications. Over the past 12 years, there have been more than 10,000 theoretical and experimental studies on MXenes. All these publications have primarily focused on Ti3C2Tx MXene because of its fascinating material properties and tunability towards target applications. To provide readers with a fundamental understanding of this emerging 2D material, this review discusses the recent trends in the design of Ti3C2Tx MXene for gas sensors and energy harvesting applications. For the most updated information, this review focuses on important findings and applications reported in the last decade.
