Abstract
MXenes have been extensively studied due to their high metallic conductivity, hydrophilic properties, tunable layer structure and attractive surface chemistry, making them highly desirable for energy-related applications. However, slow catalytic reaction kinetics and limited active sites have severely impeded their further practical applications. Surface engineering of MXenes has been rationally designed and investigated to regulate their electronic structure, increase the density of active sites, optimize the binding energy, and thus boost the electrocatalytic performance. In this review, we comprehensively summarized the surface engineering strategies for MXene nanostructures, including surface termination…
