THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 935:173395. [PMID: 38795988 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.173395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2024] [Revised: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
This work combined the stability of the porous structure of metal-organic frameworks with the strong reducibility of nano zero-valent iron, for the controllable integration of NZVI into MOFs to utilize the advantages of each component with enhancing the rapid decontamination and scavenging of Cr(VI) from wastewater. Hence, four kinds of MOFs/NZVI composites namely ZIF67/NZVI, MOF74/NZVI, MIL101(Fe)/NZVI, CuBTC/NZVI, were prepared for Cr(VI) capture. The results indicated that the stable structure of ZIF67, MOF74, MIL101(Fe), CuBTC, was beneficial for the dispersion of NZVI that could help more close contact between MOFs/NZVI reactive sites and Cr(VI), subsequently, MOFs/NZVI was proved to be better scavengers for Cr(VI) scavenging than NZVI alone. The Cr(VI) capture achieved the maximum adsorption capacity at pH ~ 4.0, which might be due to the participation of more H+ in the reaction and better corrosion of NZVI at lower pH. Mechanism investigation demonstrated synergy of adsorption, reduction and surface precipitation resulted in enhanced Cr(VI) scavenging, and Fe(0), dissolved and surface-bound Fe(II) were the primary reducing species. The findings of this investigation indicated that the as-prepared composites of ZIF67/NZVI, MOF74/NZVI, MIL101(Fe)/NZVI, CuBTC/NZVI, with high oxidation resistance and excellent reactivity, could provide reference for the decontamination and purification of actual Cr(VI)-containing wastewater.

Abstract
Lithium-selenium batteries have emerged as a promising alternative to lithium-sulfur batteries due to their high electrical conductivity and comparable volume capacity. However, challenges such as the shuttle effect of polyselenides and high-volume fluctuations hinder their practical implementation. To address these issues, we propose synthesizing Fe-CNT/TiO2 catalyst through high-temperature sintering of an amalgamated nanoarchitecture of carbon nanotubes decorated metal-organic framework (MOF) and MXene, optimized for efficient selenium hosting, leveraging the distinctive physicochemical properties. The catalytic features inherent in the porous Se@Fe-CNT/TiO2 nanoarchitecture were instrumental in promoting efficient ion and electron transport, and lithium-polyselenide kinetics, while its inherent porosity could play a crucial role in inhibiting electrode stress during cycling. This nanoarchitecture exhibits remarkable battery performance, retaining 99.7% of theoretical capacity after 425 cycles at 0.5 C rate and demonstrating 95.8% capacity retention after 2000 cycles at 1 C rate, with ∼100% Coulombic efficiency. Additionally, the Se@Fe-CNT/TiO2 electrode exhibited an impressive recovery of 297.5 mAh/g (97.9%) capacity after undergoing 450 cycles at a charging rate of 10 C and a discharging rate of 1 C. This synergistic integration of MOF- and MXene-derived materials unveils new possibilities for high-performance and durable LSeBs, thus advancing electrochemical energy storage systems.

Abstract
In this work, a new composite photocatalyst was synthesized by flower-like Bi2O3 and two-dimensional multilayer V2C using a facile hydrothermal method. Compared with the pristine sample, the specific surface area of Bi2O3/V2C MXene composite is significantly increased, which is favourable to improve the photocatalytic efficiency. The analysis of the UV-vis absorption spectrum and band gap energy shows that the construction of heterojunction broadens the light response range, improves the light absorption capacity, and obtains a narrower band gap than any of the single component, which is beneficial to the utilization of light. PL, TPC and EIS analysis revealed that Bi2O3/V2C MXene composite had stronger carrier mobility, which further confirmed that the photocatalytic oxidation performance of the system was the dominant reason in the photocatalytic NO pollutant removal process. This study provides a new idea for better understanding the two-dimensional MXene material-based photocatalyst and improving the NO removal efficiency.

Abstract
The release of organic contaminants has grown to be a major environmental concern and a threat to the ecology of water bodies. Persulfate-based Advanced Oxidation Technology (PAOT) is effective at eliminating hazardous pollutants and has an extensive spectrum of applications. Iron-based metal-organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) and their derivatives have exhibited great advantages in activating persulfate for wastewater treatment. In this article, we provide a comprehensive review of recent research progress on the significant potential of Fe-MOFs for removing antibiotics, organic dyes, phenols, and other contaminants from aqueous environments. Firstly, multiple approaches for preparing Fe-MOFs, including the MIL and ZIF series were introduced. Subsequently, removal performance of pollutants such as antibiotics of sulfonamides and tetracyclines (TC), organic dyes of rhodamine B (RhB) and acid orange 7 (AO7), phenols of phenol and bisphenol A (BPA) by various Fe-MOFs was compared. Finally, different degradation mechanisms, encompassing free radical degradation pathways and non-free radical degradation pathways were elucidated. This review explores the synthesis methods of Fe-MOFs and their application in removing organic pollutants from water bodies, providing insights for further refining the preparation of Fe-MOFs.

Abstract
The primary factors that govern the selectivity and efficacy of CO2 photoreduction are the degree of activation of CO2 on the active surface sites of photocatalysts and charge separation/transfer kinetics. In this context, the rational synthesis of heterostructured MXene-coupled CeO2-based photocatalysts with different loading concentrations of Ti3C2MXene via a one-step hydrothermal approach has been undertaken. These photocatalysts exhibit a shift in X-ray diffraction peaks to higher 2θ values and changes in stretching vibrations of 5 wt % Ti3C2MXene/CeO2(5-TC/Ce) that indicate interaction between Ti3C2MXene and CeO2. Moreover, XPS analysis confirms the presence of the Ce3+/Ce4+ states. A sharp band at 2335 cm-1 observed during the CO2 photoreduction process corresponds to bidentate b-CO32-, which facilitates the adsorption of CO2 at the surface of the catalyst as revealed by the TPD analysis. Furthermore, the Schryvers test and NMR analysis were undertaken to confirm the formaldehyde intermediate formation during CO2 photoreduction to C2H5OH. The decrease in emission intensity, reduced lifetimes (2.68 ns), and lower interfacial resistance, as revealed by PL, TR-PL, and EIS analysis, imply an efficient charge separation and charge transfer in the case of the Ti3C2MXene/CeO2 heterojunction. The decrease in the intensity of peaks in the EPR spectrum in the case of 5-TC/Ce further confirms efficient charge transfer kinetics across the interface. The optimized 5-TC/Ce shows CO2 reduction with a drastically enhanced yield of ethanol on the order of 6127 μmol g-1 at 5 h with 98% selectivity and 7.54% apparent quantum efficiency, which is 6-fold higher than that of ethanol produced by bare CeO2. Herein, CeO2 that acts as a redox couple (Ce3+/Ce4+) when coupled with MXene having a metallic nature that reduces the electron transfer resistance is in unison, enabling an enhanced mobilization of electrons. Thereby, the synergistic coupling of Ti3C2MXene with CeO2 leads to an efficient photoreduction of CO2 under visible light illumination.

Abstract
An electrochemical aptasensor was prepared for the efficient, sensitive, and selective detection of 17β-estradiol. The sensor was based on a defective two-dimensional porphyrin-based metal-organic framework derived from V2CTx MXene. The resulting metal-organic framework nanosheets benefited from the advantages of V2CTx MXene nanosheets and porphyrin-based metal-organic framework, two-dimensional porphyrin-based metal-organic framework nanosheets demonstrated amplified electrochemical response and enhanced aptamer-immobilization ability compared with V2CTx MXene nanosheets. The sensor's detection limit was ultralow at 0.81 fg mL-1 (2.97 fM), and the 17β-estradiol concentration range was wide, thereby outperforming most reported aptasensors. The high selectivity, superior stability and reproducibility, and excellent regeneration performance of the constructed aptasensor indicated its remarkable potential application for 17β-estradiol determination in diverse real samples. This aptasensing strategy can be used to analyze other targets by replacing the corresponding aptamer.

Abstract
In this work, AgBr/Ti3C2@TiO2 ternary composite photocatalyst was prepared by a solvothermal and precipitation method with the aims of introducing Ti3C2 as a cocatalyst and TiO2 as a compositing semiconductor. The crystal structure, morphology, elemental state, functional groups and photoelectrochemical properties were studied by XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS, FI-IR and EIS. The photocatalytic performances of the composites were investigated by the photodehydrogenation of diethyl 1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate (1,4-DHP) and the photodegradation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) under visible light irradiation (λ > 400 nm). The AgBr/Ti3C2@TiO2 composite photocatalyst showed enhanced photocatalytic performance in both photocatalytic reactions. The photocatalytic activity of the composite photocatalyst is dependent on the proportional content of Ti3C2@TiO2. With optimized Ti3C2@TiO2 proportion, the photocatalytic ability of the AgBr/Ti3C2@TiO2 composite was 24.5 times as high as that of Ti3C2@TiO2 for photodehydrogenation of 1,4-DHP and 1.9 times as high as that of pure AgBr for photodegradation of TCH. The enhanced photocatalytic performance of the AgBr/Ti3C2@TiO2 composite should be due to the formation of a p-n heterojunction structure between AgBr and Ti3C2@TiO2 and the excellent electronic properties of Ti3C2, which enhanced the visible light absorption capacity, lowered the internal resistance, speeded up the charge transfer and reduced the recombination efficiency of photo-generated carriers. Mechanism studies showed that superoxide free radical (˙O2-) was the main active species. In addition, the composite photocatalyst also displayed good stability, indicating its reutilization in practical application.

Abstract
The application of photothermal materials in seawater desalination, wastewater treatment have been widely studied, however, there are relatively few studies that combine photothermal effects and solar-driven photocatalysis and exhibit efficient solar-driven water evaporation performance and excellent photocatalytic ability. Form the perspective of practical application, it is of great significance to combine photothermal effect with solar-driven photocatalysis to develop environment-friendly evaporator with low cost, simple preparation process and ability of seawater desalination, wastewater treatment and photodegradation of organic dyes. In this paper, a novel multifunctional MXene/polypyrrole (PPy) coated melamine foam (MF) named as MF-MXene/PPy was successfully prepared by simple impregnation and in-situ polymerization. The MF-MXene/PPy has rich porosity (89.13 %), abundant water molecule transport channels, excellent light absorption capacity (about 94 %), low thermal conductivity (0.1047 W m-1 K-1), and exhibits excellent performance in solar desalination, wastewater purification and photodegradation of organic dyes. Under 1 kW m-2 illuminate, the solar energy conversion rate and efficiency of MF-MXene/PPy reaches up to 1.5174 kg m-2h-1 and 91.24 %. Moreover, due to the regular pore size of MF-MXene/PPy, good salinity tolerance was shown even after continuous evaporation in 20 wt% NaCl for 8 h. After continuous evaporation in 70 mL of 20 wt% NaCl for 8 h, the amount of salt collected could reach 0.2 g. In addition, MF-MXene/PPy also possessed excellent visible light degradation ability for organic dyes, and the degradation rate of methylene blue (MB), rhodamine B (RHB) and methyl orange (MO) were 92.38 %, 88.92 % and 91.75 %, respectively. As a fundamental research, this research will open a novel way to the development of new evaporator.

Abstract
Herein, we develop a hemin-functionalized microfluidic chip with dual-electric signal outputs for accurate determination of uric acid (UA). Hemin is designed as the catalyst, which could trigger a built-in reference signal. Carbon nanotube (CNT) and alkalinized titanium carbide (alk-Ti3C2Tx) are used as attachment substrates to strengthen the signal. Benefiting from the synergistic action of hemin, CNT, and alk-Ti3C2Tx, the hybrid functionalized sensor shows prominent electrochemical capacity, desirable catalytic activity, and unique built-in signal ability. Through density functional theory calculations, the structure-reactivity relationship and possible signal output mechanism are deeply investigated. The functionalized sensor is further integrated into a microfluidic chip to prepare a portable electrochemical sensing platform, in which multiple sample processing steps including primary filtration, target enrichment, and reliable analysis can be conducted step-by-step. Based on the abovementioned designs, the developed functionalized microfluidic platform presents desirable performance in UA determination with a detection limit of 0.41 μM. Furthermore, it is capable of accurately detecting UA in urine samples, providing a promising idea for biomolecule monitoring.

Abstract
Soy sauce residue (SSR) is a valuable biological resource, which contains soy isoflavones (SIs) with antioxidant activity and can be used to scavenge radicals. Herein, MIL-100(Fe) was synthesized for the extraction of SIs from SSR. Under the optimal adsorption conditions, the adsorption capacity of MIL-100(Fe) for SIs was 51.81 mg/g, which could achieve a purity of 56.17% and a recovery of 93.8%. These results demonstrated MIL-100(Fe) possessed effective properties of adsorption and purification for SIs. The content of SIs in the purified product was 167 times than that of SSR. The purified total SIs had a good antioxidant activity. The established method had a good scavenging ability toward 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, superoxide and hydroxyl radicals, with IC50 values of 0.177, 0.116 and 0.082 mg/mL, respectively. Besides, the ferrous ion chelating potency was better than others, with IC50 values of 0.63 ± 0.0044 mg/mL. The established method was suitable for large-scale separation of purified total SIs and provided a reference for purification of bioactive factors from complex substrates.

Abstract
Designing efficient photocatalysts is vital for the photoreduction of CO2 to produce solar fuels, helping to alleviate issues of fossil fuel depletion and global warming. In this work, a novel ZnCr-LDH/Ti3C2Tx Schottky junction is successfully synthesized using an in situ coprecipitation method. ZnCr-LDH nanoflakes collectively grow on the surface of Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets. When using Ti3C2Tx MXene as a cocatalyst in the prepared heterojunction, the light absorption intensity, photo-induced electron separation and migration efficiency increase. As a result, the composite ZnCr-LDH/Ti3C2Tx results in significant improvement in the performance of photocatalytic CO2 reduction under simulated solar irradiation. The optimized sample ZCTC25 has the highest photocatalytic CO2 reduction rates of 122.45 μmol g-1 CO and 19.95 μmol g-1 CH4 (after 6 h of irradiation). These values are approximately 2.65 times higher than those of pristine ZnCr-LDH. The product selectivity towards CO is 86%. This work provides a new method for the construction of novel 2D semiconductor photocatalysts and enriches the application of an unusual type of layered double hydroxides in the photoreduction of CO2.

Abstract
It is a major challenge to combine the advantages of two kinds of two-dimensional materials to construct a heterojunction and achieve efficient photocatalytic antifouling. In this work, we covalently connected two materials MXenes and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) through the Schiff base reaction and anchored Ag nanoparticles (NPs) to prepare a Ti3C2/TpPa-1/Ag composite material with high efficiency bactericidal properties. The covalent bonding between MXene and COF greatly improved the stability of the material. Ti3C2/TpPa-1/Ag composite showed an excellent antibacterial property against S. aureus and P. aeruginosa. The fluorescence spectra of Ti3C2/TpPa-1/Ag proved that the electron transfer channels formed between the ternary materials could greatly improve the efficiency of carrier separation and prolong the life of photogenerated carriers. Density functional theory calculations showed that the synergistic catalytic effect of Ag and Ti3C2 could greatly reduce the work function along the interface, and the built-in electric field between the layers drive carrier fast migration, which effectively improve the catalytic performance.

Abstract
Rapid progress on developing smart materials and design of hybrids is motivated by pressing challenges associated with energy crisis and environmental remediation. While emergence of versatile classes of nanomaterials has been fascinating, the real excitement lies in the design of hybrid materials with tunable properties. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are the key materials for gas sorption and electrochemical applications, but their sustainability is challenged by limited chemical stability, poor electrical conductivity, and intricate, inaccessible pores. Despite tremendous efforts towards improving the stability of MOF materials, little progress has made researchers inclined toward developing hybrid materials. MXenes, a family of two-dimensional transition-metal carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides, are known for their compositional versatility and formation of a range of structures with rich surface chemistry. Hybridization of MOFs with functional layered MXene materials may be beneficial if the host structure provides appropriate interactions for stabilizing and improving the desired properties. Recent efforts have focused on integrating Ti3C2Tx and V2CTx MXenes with MOFs to result in hybrid materials with augmented electrochemical and physicochemical properties, widening the scope for emerging applications. This review discusses the potential design strategies of MXene@MOF hybrids, attributes of tunable properties in the resulting hybrids, and their applications in water treatment, sensing, electrochemical energy storage, smart textiles, and electrocatalysis. Comprehensive discussions on the recent efforts on rapidly evolving MXene@MOF materials for various applications and potential future directions are highlighted.

Abstract
MXene possesses high conductivity, excellent hydrophilicity, rich surface chemistry, hence holds great potential in various applications. However, MXene materials have low surface area utilization due to the agglomeration of ultrathin nanosheets. Assembling 2D MXene nanosheets into 3D multi-level architectures is an effective way to circumvent this issue. Incorporation of MXene with other nanomaterials during the assembly process could rationally tune and tailor the specific surface area, porosity and surface chemistry of the MXene assemblies. The complementary and synergistic effect between MXene and nanomaterials could expand their advantages and make up for their disadvantages, thus boost the performance of 3D porous MXene composites. Herein, we summarize the recent progress in fabrication of porous MXene architectures from 2D to 3D, and also discuss the potential applications of MXene nanostructures in energy harvesting systems, sensing, electromagnetic interference shielding, water purification and photocatalysis.

[PMID: 35478589 PMCID: PMC9038021 DOI: 10.1039/d1ra03496k] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Accepted: 08/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, Mn2O3/MIL-100(Fe) composite was successfully synthesized by the hydrothermal method and applied for photocatalytic removal of rhodamine B (RhB) in water. The physical and chemical properties of the synthesized materials were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, UV-visible, and BET analyses. Experimental results showed a great enhancement in the photocatalytic ability of the Mn2O3/MIL-100(Fe) composite as compared to individual Mn2O3 or MIL-100(Fe) under visible light and persulfate activation. The affecting factors such as pH, photocatalyst dose, RhB concentration, and Na2S2O8 concentration were investigated to find out the best conditions for efficient photocatalysis. By conducting a radical quenching test, all radicals of HO˙, SO4˙-, 1O2, and O2˙- were found to be important in photocatalytic decomposition. The mechanism was proposed for the enhancement of photocatalytic RhB removal via band potential calculation, charge separation, surface redox reaction, and key reactive oxidation species. With its durability, reusability, and high efficiency, the Mn2O3/MIL-100(Fe) composite emerges as a potential photocatalyst working under visible light for application in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
MXenes, a novel family of 2D materials, are energy materials that have gained considerable attention, particularly for their catalytic applications in emerging areas such as CO2 and N2 hydrogenation. Herein, for the first time, it is shown that the surface reducibility of Ti3 C2 Tx MXene can be tuned by N doping, which induces a change in the catalytic properties of supported Co nanoparticles. Pristine Co-Ti3 C2 Tx MXene favors CO production during CO2 hydrogenation, whereas CH4 production is favored when the MXene is subjected to simple N doping. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) reveal that surface rutile TiO2 nanoparticles appear on the Ti3 C2 Tx support upon N doping, which interact strongly with the supported Co nanoparticles. This interaction alters the reducibility of the supported Co nanoparticles at the interface with the TiO2 nanoparticles, shifting the product selectivity from CO to CH4 . This study successfully showcases a practical strategy, based on surface chemistry modulation of 2D MXenes, for regulating product distribution in CO2 hydrogenation.

Abstract
With the rapid development of society, the burden of energy and the environment is becoming more and more serious. Photocatalytic hydrogen production, the photosynthesis of organic fuel, and the photodegradation of pollutants are three effective ways to reduce these burdens using semiconductor photocatalysts. To improve the reaction efficiency of photocatalysts, a small amount of cocatalyst is often added when photocatalysts participate in the synthesis or decomposition reaction. The addition of this small amount of cocatalyst is like a finishing touch, significantly increasing the activity of the photocatalysts. However, in our common study of photocatalysis, we often pay attention to the study of photocatalysts but ignore the study of cocatalysts. Herein, we summarize the recent application research on cocatalysts in the field of photocatalysis, starting from the types, preparation methods, and reaction mechanisms among others, to remind researchers of the matters needing attention when using cocatalysts.

Abstract
Bi2O2CO3 (BOC) was successfully loaded on a highly conductive Ti3C2 surface by the hydrothermal method, forming a unique BOC/Ti3C2 heterostructure. The use of advanced characterization methods reveals the composition, morphology and photoelectric properties of the material. The results show that the interface formed by close contact between BOC and Ti3C2 provides an effective channel for charge transfer between the two. Importantly, the photocatalytic degradation efficiency of BOC/Ti3C2 for tetracycline (TC) is ~80%, which is significantly higher than the degradation efficiency of pure BOC and pure Ti3C2 for TC. In addition, BOC/Ti3C2 still has high catalytic activity in the degradation of complex mixed antibiotics. This is because BOC and Ti3C2 have large specific surface areas, high light absorption capacity and efficient carrier separation after recombination. At the same time, the detected superoxide radicals (O2-) and holes (h+) are the main active substances. The degradation pathway and catalytic mechanism of the photocatalytic degradation of TC by BOC/Ti3C2 are further explained. This research designed and developed a BOC/Ti3C2 composite material for the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline and mixed antibiotic wastewater, providing experimental methods and ideas for actual wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Since multilayered MXenes (Ti3C2Tx, a new family of two-dimensional materials) were initially introduced by researchers at Drexel University in 2011, various MXene-based nanocomposites have received increased attention as photocatalysts owing to their exceptional properties (e.g., rich surface chemistry, adjustable bandgap structures, high electrical conductivity, hydrophilicity, thermal stability, and large specific surface area). Therefore, we present a comprehensive review of recent studies on fabrication methods for MXene-based photocatalysts and photocatalytic performance for contaminant degradation, CO2 reduction, H2 evolution, and N2 fixation with various MXene-based nanocomposites. In addition, this review briefly discusses the stability of MXene-based nanophotocatalysts, current limitations, and future research needs, along with the various corresponding challenges, in an effort to reveal the unique properties of MXene-based nanocomposites.

Abstract
Photocatalytic nitrogen fixation has become a hot topic in recent years due to its mild and sustainable advantages. While modifying the photocatalyst to enhance its electron separation, light absorption and nitrogen reduction abilities, the role of the active sites in the catalytic reaction cannot be ignored because the N[triple bond, length as m-dash]N nitrogen bond is too strong to activate. This review summarizes the recent research on nitrogen fixation, focusing on the active sites for N2 on the catalyst surface, classifying common active sites, explaining the main role and additional role of the active sites in catalytic reactions, and discussing the methods to increase the number of active sites and their activation ability. Finally, the outlook for future research is presented. It is hoped this review could help researchers understand more about the activation of the nitrogen molecules and lead more efforts into research on nitrogen fixation photocatalysts.

Abstract
In 2011, with the successful isolation of Ti3C2, a door of 2D layered MXene has been opened and received growing attention from researchers. MXene refers to a family of two-dimensional (2D) materials made up of atomic layers of the transition metal, carbide, nitrides, or carbonitrides. Given the large surface area, adjustable surface terminal groups, and excellent conductivity of MXene, it has shown exciting potential in photocatalysis, energy conversion, and many other fields. Among many 2D MXene, Ti3C2 was the most studied for its availability, low cost, facile modification procedure, and outstanding electronic properties. In previous investigations, Ti3C2 has shown huge potential in the photocatalysis area. Ti3C2 in a photocatalysis system can enhance the separation of photoinduced electrons and holes, reduce charge recombination, and thus improve the photocatalysis performance in many systems. To adjust the performance of Ti3C2 in different applications, the properties of Ti3C2 including morphology, structures, and stability are tunable by different post-processing method in the hybridized materials. In this review, an all-around understanding of the fabrication and modification methods of Ti3C2 and their connection to photocatalytic applications of Ti3C2 MXene based materials are presented. Moreover, a summary and our perspectives of Ti3C2 are given for further investigation.

Abstract
Electro-, photo-, and photoelectrocatalysis play a critical role toward the realization of a sustainable energy economy. They facilitate numerous redox reactions in energy storage and conversion systems, enabling the production of chemical feedstock and clean fuels from abundant resources like water, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. One major obstacle for their large-scale implementation is the scarcity of cost-effective, durable, and efficient catalysts. A family of two-dimensional transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides (MXenes) has recently emerged as promising earth-abundant candidates for large-area catalytic energy storage and conversion due to their unique properties of hydrophilicity, high metallic conductivity, and ease of production by solution processing. To take full advantage of these desirable properties, MXenes have been combined with other materials to form MXene hybrids with significantly enhanced catalytic performances beyond the sum of their individual components. MXene hybridization tunes the electronic structure toward optimal binding of redox active species to improve intrinsic activity while increasing the density and accessibility of active sites. This review outlines recent strategies in the design of MXene hybrids for industrially relevant electrocatalytic, photocatalytic, and photoelectrocatalytic applications such as water splitting, metal-air/sulfur batteries, carbon dioxide reduction, and nitrogen reduction. By clarifying the roles of individual material components in the MXene hybrids, we provide design strategies to synergistically couple MXenes with associated materials for highly efficient and durable catalytic applications. We conclude by highlighting key gaps in the current understanding of MXene hybrids to guide future MXene hybrid designs in catalytic energy storage and conversion applications.
