Originální abstrakt

Shaping the morphology of 2D materials is essential for tuning their properties. This is especially true for MXenes, a class of 2D materials, as fine morphological control is the key to unlocking their potential. Here, Ti3C2Tx MXene is synthesized using carbon fibers as both the carbon source and template, creating a unique tubular morphology where the MXene layers align along the tube. The tubular Ti3C2Tx MXene and corresponding precursor MAX phase are synthesized by molten salts shielded synthesis method in air. Comprehensive characterization confirms that the MXene retains the tubular structure conferred by the carbon fiber. Preliminary electrochemical measurements as an anode material in lithium-ion batteries show an initial discharge capacity and good rate performance at a high current density, indicating potential for high-power applications. Furthermore, this tubular morphology opens new possibilities for MXenes in gas sensing, liquid filtration processes, and other applications that require fast diffusion.
