从电化学储能到环境修复，MXenes被证明是一种有前景的材料，具有广泛的应用，导致它们在研究中越来越受欢迎。随着越来越多的新研究人员专注于MXenes，确保这些材料的安全可靠生产变得越来越重要。在这里，我们描述了MXene的安全合成，从它们的前体（MAX）到最终产品（分层MXene），重点是基于hf的蚀刻方法。以合成Ti3C2TxMXene为例，讨论了合成过程中每个步骤的安全风险，并演示了安全、可重复性和可靠合成MXenes的必要注意事项。最后，我们从细胞毒性方面综述了MXene安全性的最新研究。
MXenes are proven to be promising materials for a wide variety of applications, from electrochemical energy storage to environmental remediation, leading to their increasing popularity in research. With an influx of new researchers focused on MXenes, it is increasingly important to ensure the safe and reliable production of these materials. Herein, we describe the safe synthesis of MXenes, from their precursors (MAX) to the final product (delaminated MXene), focusing on HF-based etching approaches. Using the synthesis of Ti3C2TxMXene as an example, we discuss safety risks associated with each step of the procedure and demonstrate necessary precautions for the safe, reproducible, and reliable synthesis of MXenes. Finally, we overview the most updated research on MXene safety from a cytotoxicity aspect.
