Abstract

Next-generation rechargeable batteries are being developed to address challenges such as low cost, high stability, high energy density, and safe energy storage materials. MXene-based mate-rials have attracted wide attention due to their unique properties, large surface area, high elec-trical conductivity, and easy dispersion in solvents compared to graphene. MXene derived from carbide and nitrides of transition metals (Ti3C2TX) have unique properties compared to other two-dimensional materials (2D) for use in rechargeable batteries. MXene electrodes delivered excellent performance and cyclic stability in various rechargeable secondary batteries. This re-view highlights the role of MXene in next-generation rechargeable batteries of lithium ion bat-teries (LIBs), lithium sulfur batteries (LISBs), sodium ion batteries (SIBs), zinc ion batteries (ZIBs), aluminium ion batteries (AlIBs), potassium ion batteries (PIBs) and magnesium ion bat-teries (MIBs). Moreover, in this review, we discussed the current research developments to im-prove the efficiency of energy storage devices and present the future research direction to im-prove the scalability, stability, and overall performance of MXene-coated electrodes in recharge-able batteries to overcome the energy storage challenges.
