Chloride Ions: Essential Agents for Achieving Spontaneous Delamination of MXene

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work first identifies chloride ions as essential agents for spontaneous MXene delamination. Without Cl−, etched Ti3C2Tx remains multilayered; with Cl−, interlayer modification enables Li+ intercalation and osmotic swelling. The SPEED process couples HF‐assisted Al extraction, Cl−‐mediated interlayer expansion, and Li+‐driven swelling to produce ...

Carbon nitride-assisted thermal treatment for sintering-resistant Pt/C catalysts

Journal of Electrochemical Science and Engineering
High-temperature annealing often induces severe sintering of Pt nanoparticles in Pt/C catalysts, resulting in activity degradation. Here, a carbon nitride–assisted thermal treatment strategy is proposed to enhance the thermal stability of Pt/C.

Sub‐Nanometer Cobalt on Tungsten Titanium Carbide MXene (W2TiC2Tx): An Electrocatalyst for Highly Efficient and Stable Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution at Industrial‐Scale Current Density

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A novel W2TiC2Tx MXene prepared through a MAX‐phase route supports sub‐nanometer Co for highly efficient alkaline hydrogen evolution. Strong Co–W interfacial interactions optimize hydrogen adsorption and catalytic activity, enabling low overpotentials of 63 mV at 10 mA cm−2, small Tafel slope of 44.3 mV dec−1, and exceptional durability at industrially

Spatial‐Compatibility‐Assisted Molecular Intercalation in MXenes

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a solvent–free NH4F–mediated route for simultaneous Al removal and molecular intercalation in MXenes. Intercalants are selected by comparing their crystallographic X, Y, and Z dimensions with the MXene interlayer spacing, establishing a spatial‐compatibility criterion that rationalizes guest–host matching and enables predictive ...

Picolinamide Functionalization on Carbon Nitride Edges for Enhanced Charge Separation and Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution

Nanomaterials
The periodical distribution of N and C atoms in carbon nitride (CN) not only results in localized electrons in each tri-s-triazine unit, but oxidation and reduction sites are in close contact spatially, resulting in severe carrier recombination.
