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 ...
