Mxenes have been flourishing over the last decade as a high-performance 2D material, which combines the advantages of high electrical conductivity, photothermal conversion, and easy dispersion. They have been used...

Advancements in MXene-based composites for electronic skins

“…83 Extensive research has been conducted on wearable pressure sensors as E-skins to meet the demand for a highly sensitive piezoresistive sensing system capable of detecting a wide range of pressures. 17 Bi et al 84 developed a wearable and flexible piezoresistive pressure sensor using a unique composite aerogel assembled in a sandwich structure. To create this sensor, directional freezing was employed to prepare a compressible composite aerogel consisting of silver nanowires and Ti 3 C 2 T x MXenes.…”

“…Furthermore, MXenebased E-skins can be designed to be lightweight and flexible, ensuring comfort and freedom of movement for athletes. 13,17,88 For instance, a highly efficient flexible piezoresistive sensor was created for human activity monitoring by integrating MXenes into a honeycomb-like structure formed using femtosecond filamentating pulses. 89 The sensing mechanism was based on the modification of the conductive paths connecting the top inter-digital electrodes and the bottom micro-structured films coated with MXenes.…”
