MXene for multifunctional electromagnetic protection

The researches on MXene-based electromagnetic (EM) protection materials have been ongoing for 7 years since 2016, and MXene-based EM protection materials have become a leading material in the field of EM protection. In recent years, other multifunctional applications according to MXene-based EM protection materials have been developed. In this review, we systematically summarize the development trend of MXene-based EM protection materials. Particularly, we focus on the main line of the development of MXene-based EM functional materials, and point out corresponding development directions on account of different mechanism basis for EMI shielding materials and EM wave absorbing materials. Then, we comprehensively elaborate on the other functional applications of MXene-based EM protection materials. Finally, we discuss the challenges and opportunities in the development of MXene for multifunctional EM protection.
