MXenes are a new class of 2D materials consisting of transition metals carbides and nitrides that demonstrated extraordinary features for electrochemical energy storage.
We have investigated MXene (Ti3C2) in water using soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at the O K-edge and Ti L-edge before and after urea intercalation. The samples were characterized as dried state in vacuum and in aqueous dispersion solution using a flow cell system.
The intercalation impact of urea molecules between the MXene planes and the effect of aqueous dispersion on their electronic structure will be discussed.
This study demonstrates that XAS performed directly in aqueous media is a powerful method for the characterization of energy-related materials.
