Introduction
MXene, a class of 2D transition metal carbides/nitrides, has been identified as a new emerging material for various applications including energy storage, electronics, and biorelated due to its wider physical characteristics. Further, the formation of hybrid composites of MXene with other materials introduces interesting uses in multifunctional applications. MXene offers tremendous promise for energy storage applications, due to its lamellar construction, outstanding density, conductivity, configurable terminations, and ionic pseudocapacitance charge storage process [1][2][3]. A wide variety of MXenes are produced by diverse mixtures of transition metals, carbon and/or nitrogen, and diverse n layers; however, only a few have been generated and employed in energy storage applications thus far, with Ti 3 C 2 Tx being the most investigated [4][5][6][7][8][9]. The possible MAX phase associated materials is much needed. The composite of MXene with ferrites requires attention as there are many opportunities to explore more nanocompositions.

Preparation of MXene
MXene can be prepared through a top-down approach whereby the etching takes place using bottom-up methods, including chemical vapor deposition, pulsed laser deposition etc. [31][32][33]. However, the bottom-up approach has some limitations including the availability of precursors and desired size, which could be a challenging process through the chemical synthesis or chemical exfoliation process. The etching, delamination and filtration processes comprise the basic preparation process for scalable synthesis in the MAX phase [34]. Through a simple process that involves selectively eliminating the A component from the MAX form at room temperature, MXene synthesis can be performed [35]. In this procedure, the MAX phase substance is agitated in aqueous HF at a predetermined fraction for a predetermined amount of time, separated from the blends by centrifugation and/or filtering, and then washed by deionized water until the pH of the dispersion attains values between 4-6. The overall process is schematically shown in Figure 2. The etching process can be done through hydrogen fluoride (HF), lithium fluoride (LiF)/HF, NH4HF2, molten salt etching, alkali treatment and the intercalation of additives such as hydrazine with N,N-dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide, and urea, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, amine n-butylamine, and choline hydroxide [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46]. As all these synthesis processes are progressing rigorously towards a better synthesis process, there are numerous opportunities to solve the present issues related to the scalable single-phase synthesis of MXene. Studies have etched Ti3C2 MXene and Ti2C MXene with LiF, potassium fluoride (KF), ammonium fluoride (NH4F), and sodium fluoride (NaF) in hydrochloric acid (HCl), and then delaminated the resultant material with urea, dimethylsulfoxide, or ammonium hydroxide. Further optimizations were done with the time and temperature variation of the reaction process. The observed morphology of Ti3C2 and Ti2C for various conditions is shown in Figure 3.

Further optimizations were done with the time and temperature variation of the reaction process. The observed morphology of Ti 3 C 2 and Ti 2 C for various conditions is shown in Figure 3.  HF, which is extremely corrosive and detrimental to the functioning of Li-ion batte ies and supercapacitors, is obviously used in the majority of the MXenes production pro cesses. The preparation of a typical MXene-Ti3C2Tx (T = OH, O) using an alkali-assiste hydrothermal technique has recently been reported for fluorine free synthesis of MXen [44]. This technique was modeled after a Bayer procedure that is frequently employed i the refinement of bauxite. Multilayer Ti3C2Tx with a purity of 92 weight percent was pro duced by the complete procedure, which uses 27.5 M NaOH at 270 °C. Two stages mak up the OH − attack on the Al layers in Ti3AlC2: oxidizing the Al to form Al (oxide) hydrox ides and dissolving the Al (oxide) hydroxides in alkali as shown in Figure 4. Ti3AlC2 exterior Al atoms are susceptible to oxidation and dissolve in NaOH as Al hydroxide soluble in NaOH. These results in -OH or -O terminate the exposed Ti and Al atoms. Th inner Al ions also oxidize if this etching procedure is allowed to continue. Al(OH)3 and i AlO(OH) are unavoidably produced by the OH − attack, though. These insoluble com pounds are prevented from easily interacting with OH to form soluble Al(OH)4 − due t the lattice confining provided by the Ti layers ( Figure 4a). This kind of "jamming effec must be removed because it prevents the synthesis of MXene. The Bayer procedur demonstrates that dissolving the aluminum (oxide) hydroxides requires considerab temperatures and larger alkali concentrations. This is ideal for getting rid of the obstruc ing Al compounds and will allow the entire selective etching process to move in the d rection of formation of MXenes.

This is ideal for getting rid of the obstructing Al compounds and will allow the entire selective etching process to move in the direction of formation of MXenes. The overall process is schematically shown in Figure 4. The SEM, TEM and HRTEM micrograph of prepared MXenes are shown in Figure 4b-d.
The stability of MXene is one of the important parameters to consider in any type of application [48,49]. In general, the MXene is easily oxidized or degraded from its original physicochemical characteristics. The oxidation of the Ti 3 C 2 results in the formation of Ti-based oxide materials on the surface or anywhere in the MXene along with amorphous carbon. However, several procedures were demonstrated to control the oxidation or degradation process of MXenes [50]. A few of the processes include the synthesis of MXene with fewer defects, surface modification of MXene with organic ligands or any other suitable surface modifier, dispersions of MXenes in organic solutions, and the storing of MXene in solution, which is stored inside the inert gas-filled container [49,51]. If the MXene hybrids with polymeric materials or any other stable materials are required in particular applications, then the degradation of the stability and electronic conductivity of MXene could be reduced due to the polymeric or any other stable materials in hybrids [52].

Synthesis of Ferrites
Numerous methods are available for the synthesis of various ferrites including coprecipitation, sol-gel, hydrothermal, solvothermal, the polyol process, and the chemical oxidation process [53][54][55][56][57][58][59]. However, the selection of the synthesis process is important to achieve the required shape and size of the desired ferrite. Chemical methods are preferred for the preparation of various ferrites due to the opportunity to tune the ferrite particle shape and size by modifying the experimental parameters including precursors, additives, reaction time, reaction temperature, and post-thermal treatment [60,61].

Chemical methods are preferred for the preparation of various ferrites due to the opportunity to tune the ferrite particle shape and size by modifying the experimental parameters including precursors, additives, reaction time, reaction temperature, and post-thermal treatment [60,61]. The co-precipitation method is a very common chemical method used to synthesize all kinds of ferrites. The co-precipitation method is a simple reaction process, and it can be completed within one hour depending on the ferrite stoichiometry.
The basic reaction mechanism for the formation of ferrites through the co-precipitation process is, The divalent metal ions can be varied to form various forms of ferrites and doping of other metal ions, also a simple process in this reaction. Mono-sized ferrite particle formation is possible with optimized experimental parameters.
The chemical oxidation process is also a widely used chemical synthesis process for the formation of ferrites with larger size, and this method could be used to prepare the ferrites with a range of particle sizes. However, the formation of mono sized particles is challenging, and a wide range of particle size distribution is usually observed. The ferrite particle size can be tuned by varying the oxidant, precipitant and also by introducing the nucleating agent. The general reaction process may be defined as, Several other methods were utilized for the development of various ferrites with tunable size, variable morphology by varying the experimental parameters, addition to the surfactant and doping process. Through the thermal decomposition process with the help of oleic acid (OA) and oleylamine (OAm), monodisperse magnetic Mn-Zn ferrite with a variety of morphologies from nanocrystals to clusters such as spherical, cubical and starlike nanocrystal have been effectively produced [62]. The reaction temperature and aging period affect whether nanocrystals will form. The fluctuation of the monomer fraction in the traditional La Mer model serves to assess the crystal nucleation/growth process in synthesis. For samples taken from all synthesis below 260 • C, no substance is seen. When the monomer is consistently utilized, irregular "crystal nuclei" (2-3 nm) are created at 260 • C, as shown in Figure 5A. At a later temperature of 260-300 • C, the first smaller-sized spheroidal nanocrystals are formed. When the aging period is increased from 20 to 40 min at 300 • C, a large number of uniform spherical nanocrystals in a closed packed array are generated. Small quasi-spherical shapes are initially produced in cubical and starlike morphology formation at the earlier temperatures (260-280 • C), as observed in Figure 5B and C. The result is mostly spherical with a tiny number of quasi-cubical shapes at the reaction's initial stage at 300 • C. Most of the nanocrystals remain growing as the aging duration at 300 • C is increased from 20 to 40 min, generating uniform cubical morphology with changes in size as shown in Figure 5B or continuing to form the eight corners of the half-formed precursors to create starlike nanocrystals as observed in Figure 5C. By altering the OA/OAm ratios, it is possible to successfully witness the uninterrupted shape transformation of nanocrystals from their initial sphericity, cubicity, to their final starriness, as schematically shown in Figure 5D. Using a quick and affordable thermal decomposition approach, it was possible to successfully produce spherical, cubical, and hexagonal shaped Co-ferrite nanoparticles [63]. The TEM micrograph and particle size distribution of the developed cubical, spherical, and hexagonal shaped particles are shown in Figure 6. The optical band gaps, which Using a quick and affordable thermal decomposition approach, it was possible to successfully produce spherical, cubical, and hexagonal shaped Co-ferrite nanoparticles [63]. The TEM micrograph and particle size distribution of the developed cubical, spherical, and hexagonal shaped particles are shown in Figure 6. The optical band gaps, which vary according to the shape of the particles, were set between 1.41 and 1.32 eV. At 10 K and room temperature, respectively, hexagonal nanoparticles showed a superior coercivity of 17,845.8 and 1577.76 Oe than spherical and cubical shaped particles. Because hexagonal-shaped Co-ferrite has an extraordinary surface-to-volume ratio and supplementary structural facets, the coercivity can be altered. Due to the morphology-dependent cation allocation, different shaped particles have adjustable saturation magnetization, which is important for certain room temperature magnetic applications. The observed magnetic characteristics along with the calculated magnetic anisotropy values are listed in Table 1.  Without the use of a surfactant, a single moderate hydrothermal technique at 160 °C was used to synthesize Ni-ferrite with the morphologies of spheres, rods, and nano-octa- Without the use of a surfactant, a single moderate hydrothermal technique at 160 • C was used to synthesize Ni-ferrite with the morphologies of spheres, rods, and nanooctahedrons [64]. When the pH level was 7, nano-spheres with sizes of 10-25 nm were produced. At a pH level of 12, nano-rods with a length of around 1 m and width of 50-60 nm were generated. With a pH of 13, the sample's octahedral shape was discovered. Each side is approximately 150 nm long. Clearly, the Ni-ferrite nano-octahedrons' surface contains a few barely detectable nanoparticles. The schematic process for the formation mechanism of various shapes is shown in Figure 7. The saturation magnetization of nanooctahedrons and nanorods was measured as 55 and 40 emu/g. The spherical shaped particles did not show any saturation magnetization as the particle sizes are in the superparamagnetic regime.
This synthesis strategies could be adopted for the preparation of ferrite nanoparticles with different morphology where it may be required for the specific applications. of various shapes is shown in Figure 7.

This synthesis strategies could be adopted for the preparation of ferrite nanoparti cles with different morphology where it may be required for the specific applications. Doping of metal ion into ferrite also could be used to alter the size and shape of th ferrite [65][66][67][68][69][70]. It is also noted that the particle size and shape influences the magneti characteristics of the particle [71][72][73][74]. For the preparation of mixed ferrite, the divalent and trivalent metal ions can be introduced and adjusted for the complete phase formation with required cation distribution [75,76]. Similarly, other chemical methods such as the sono chemical process, solid state reaction, and auto-combustion method also could be adopted for the synthesis of various ferrite magnetic nanoparticles with the required shape and size [77][78][79][80].

MXene/Ferrite Composite Formation
The formation of composite is important as the application may require a synergi effect from hybrid materials. It is advantageous for the MXene to not have any nano materials between the layers to avoid the restacking. If the nanocomposite formation pro cess is not completely done, then there is a chance of the formation of two different mate rials without any physical or chemical attachment. To achieve the complete formation o composites of ferrites and MXenes, first the MXene should be covered with the ferric, fer rous, or any other metal ions before the formation of ferrites. The further addition of oxi dant or reducing agent, depending on the experimental methods, could form the ferrite physically, chemically or physic-chemically attached on the surface of MXenes. Any of the Doping of metal ion into ferrite also could be used to alter the size and shape of the ferrite [65][66][67][68][69][70]. It is also noted that the particle size and shape influences the magnetic characteristics of the particle [71][72][73][74].

Any of the above discussed chemical synthesis processes could be adopted for the formation of MXene composites with MXene. Further, the addition of any other attractive materials such as carbon-based materials is also possible for the formation of ternary composites with MXene.
The attachment of ferrites on MXene is important to be confirmed from any characterization techniques. The presence of ferrites on MXene could be evidenced from X-ray diffraction studies. But the manner of ferrite formation on the MXene could be evidenced through any microscopic methods. The fraction of ferrites in the MXene composites could be estimated from the magnetic hysteresis measurement, by estimating the saturation magnetization of bare ferrite and MXene/ferrite composites. The vibration modes can be analyzed through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy methods. Further, the evidence of the metallic state of the metal ions present in the MXene composites could be analyzed from the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy method. The specific surface area, pore size, and volume could be measured from the BET surface area measurement techniques. If we have strong evidence for the physicochemical characteristics of the MXene/ferrite, then the nanocomposite could be utilized for electro chemical energy storage applications.
Solvothermal synthesis was adopted for the synthesis of MXene/Fe 3 O 4 nanocomposite with uniform distribution of Fe 3 O 4 on the exterior and between the interlayers of MXene [81]. The simple schematic synthesis process was showed in Figure 8a. The particle sizes with 50-100 nm were observed for the Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles on the surface of MXenes in the MXene/Fe 3 O 4 nanocomposites. Similarly, ultrasonic treatment is used to synthesize the MXene/Fe 3 O 4 nanocomposite for the potential applications as additive sulfur cathode in the lithium−sulfur battery [29]. The schematic synthesis process for the Fe 3 O 4 distributed on MXene nanocomposite formation is shown in Figure 8. The even distributions of Fe 3 O 4 on the lamellar structure of Mxene were achieved and the improvement in the battery performance was evidenced.

The MXene nanosheets with the thickness of around 1 nm were decorated with the spherical nanoparticles of Fe3O4 with a size of a few dozen nanometers.

Table 2 summarizes a few available combinations of MXene nanocomposites and their applications.   From Table 2, it is clearly understood that there is much information available on the preparation of MXene/ferrites, which were utilized for the photocatalytic degradation of dyes, water purification and electromagnetic wave absorption. Few reports are available for the application of MXene/ferrites in batteries and fuel cells. However, very limited reports are available on the electrochemical super capacitive characteristics of MXene/ferrites nanocomposites. So, it is important to study the physicochemical and electrochemical characteristics of various MXene/ferrite nanocomposites to be utilized in next generation energy storage systems.

MXene/Ferrite Electrode for Supercapacitor Applications
The utilization of multivalence metal ions in the mixed ferrite could be beneficial for the charge transfer process during electrochemical reactions. In this regard, Co-ferrite (CoFe 2 O 4 ) has been attempted for the formation of nanocomposites with MXene due to the extraordinary theoretical specific capacitance, mixed valence, and chemical stability [24]. Co-ferrite is an established example of an inverse spinel in which Fe 3+ ions coexist with Co 2+ ions at tetrahedral regions and Fe 3+ ions at octahedral regions, resulting in enhanced redox activity and effective charge storage. The main issue with the Co-ferrite in supercapacitor applications is its low electronic conductivity. However, this could be solved by forming hybrid composites with other materials that have excellent electronic conductivity. The addition of Co-ferrite would be advantageous in MXene/Co-ferrite nanocomposites, as the Co-ferrite could be used to avoid the restacking of MXene layers. Co-precipitation with wet chemical etching processes were utilized for the formation of Co-ferrite and MXene. The MXene/Co-ferrite composite formation was achieved through the ultrasonication process for one hour and dried at 80 • C in vacuum. The single phase of Co-Ferrite was evidenced for bare Co-ferrite nanoparticles as well as for the MXene/Co-ferrite nanocomposite, and the observed XRD pattern of bare Co-ferrite and MXene/Co-ferrite are shown in Figure 10i(a,b). The characteristics reflections of MXene were not witnessed in the XRD pattern of MXene/Co-ferrite nanocomposite. However, the presence of MXene in the MXene/Co-ferrite nanocomposite was discussed through the observation if peak broadening occurs, variation in the lattice parameters and shift in the characteristic peak is observed. The observed peak broadening and peak shift are shown in Figure 10i(c,d). The SEM micrograph confirms the Co-ferrite nanoparticles sizes ranging from 70-90 nm and the layers construction of MXene as shown in Figure 10ii(a-c). The uniform dispersion of Co-ferrite over the MXene layered structure was evidenced from the SEM micrograph as shown in Figure 10ii(d). It is also noted that the Co-ferrite nanoparticles were also incorporated between MXene layers, which would be advantageous for the supercapacitor applications. dispersion of Co-ferrite over the MXene layered structure was evidenced from the SEM micrograph as shown in Figure 10ii(d).

The observed electrochemical super capacitive characteristics of MXene/Co-ferrite indicate that these kinds of composites could be further investigated for the improvement in the specific capacitance and cyclic stability.
A recent study shows that the selection of electrolyte is also important for the MXene based ferrite composites [92]. The bare Fe3O4 and MXene/ Fe3O4 magnetic nanocomposites were developed through the modified chemical oxidation process by optimized experimental conditions. A few µm-sized MXenes and particle sizes ranging from 80 to 160 nm of Fe3O4 were evidenced from the microscopic measurements. The attachment of Fe3O4 on the MXene sheets in the MXene/Fe3O4 nanocomposite was evidenced from the TEM micrograph as shown in Figure 12.

Three electrolytes of LiCl, KOH and Na2SO4 were used to evaluate the suitable electrolyte for MXene/Ferrite composites with reduced graphene oxide. The measured CV, GCD curve are shown in Figure 13a,b. The higher area was observed for the nanocomposites characterized in LiCl electrolyte. Also, the LiCl showed better charge/discharge characteristics for MXene/Fe3O4 nanocomposite, compared with other two electrolytes. The estimated Cs with various current densities is shown in Figure 13c along with the EIS spectra in Figure 13d. The observed electrochemical performance demonstrated that the LiCl could provide better performance, which might be due a better combination of the lowest Li ion with the higher pore sizes in the MXene/ferrite composites. However, this electrolyte needs to be evaluated for other various combinations of MXene/ferrites to generalize the electrolyte characteristics.

Magnetic Field-assisted Applications
The external magnetic field can influence the electrochemical reactions, which is evidenced for different external magnetic fields in various electrolytes, electrodeposition of materials, and electrochemical applications [132][133][134][135][136][137][138]. It is expected that the magnetic field will be built as an effective system with the lowest energy consumption for large-scale applications through the continual and systematic development of this field [139][140][141][142]. Numerous investigations have demonstrated that the electron's energy state could be improved under a magnetic field. As a consequence, the improved energy state of the electrons would undoubtedly enhance the capacitance efficiency by increasing the effectiveness of electron movement at the electrolyte-electrode interface.
The experimental setup for the magnetic field-assisted supercapacitor applications can be easily constructed. The external magnetic field could be produced by two electromagnets, and the strength of the field could be controlled by adjusting the current supply to the electromagnets. The schematic experimental setup for the evaluation of role of the external magnetic field is shown in Figure 14. In the magnetic field produced by two electromagnets, a three-electrode cell should be immersed. To maintain consistent magnetic field intensity distribution between the positive and negative electrodes, the cell must be precisely placed.
To assess the impact of the magnetic field, five different types of aqueous electrolytes, including NaOH, KOH, NaCl, K 2 SO 4 , and H 2 SO 4 were tested [143]. On the working electrode, an amorphous commercial AC structure with significant microporosity was utilized.

On the working electrode, an amorphous commercial AC structure with significant microporosity was utilized. The various impacts of the magnetic field on the magnetocapacitance factor (MCF) values for NaOH, KOH, H2SO4, NaCl, and K2SO4 electrolytes with a magnetic field of 876 and 1786 Oe are summarized in Figure 15A,B. One may hypothesize that the active ions for rendering MCF are most likely proton and hydroxide ions by comparing H2SO4 and KOH with K2SO4 electrolytes (or by comparing NaOH with NaCl in the situation of the similar cation or anion). Without adding a magnetic field, the initial conductivities of the KOH, NaOH, and H2SO4 electrolyte were significantly higher than those of NaCl and K2SO4 electrolytes, as observed in Figure 15C. The KOH, NaOH, and H2SO4 electrolyte's conductivities linearly increased as the magnetic field's strength was amplified. Additionally, when the magnetic field was applied, the viscosity of all acidic and alkaline electrolytes decreased as observed in Figure 15D, which also contributes to the increase in conductivity. In contrast, in the magnetic field, the conductivities of K2SO4 and NaCl are barely changed. This may be because the neutral electrolyte does not clearly show the polarization impact of metal cations or anions in water.

The impact of magnetic fields on the electrochemical behavior of KOH electrolytes a various concentrations was studied as shown in Figure 16A,B and compared the MC values in KOH electrolytes of various concentrations at scan rates of 10 and 200 mV/s. Th MCF values generally increased with concentration (6 M) at the slow scan rate of 10 mV/ and the rise degree was more pronounced in the presence of a higher magnetic field. Th MCF values, however, were nearly zero for concentrations of 8 and 10 M, independent o how strong the magnetic field was. When the concentrations were 1, 2, 4, and 6 M, how ever, the MCF values were positive at the relatively high rate of 200 mV/s. The MCF va ues, however, monotonously decreased as the concentration rose at a higher fraction o KOH (8 and 10 M). The original conductivity steadily increased with the rise in the fra tion of KOH up to 8 M, as illustrated in Figure 16C. The conductivity decreased as th concentration was raised to 10 M, which is connected to the ions' delayed migration b cause of a high chance of ion collision and powerful electrostatic contact between anion and cations. The initial viscosity rose monotonously with the higher concentration, as see in Figure 16D. When the electrolyte fraction was 1, 2, and 4 M, the magnetic field reduce the viscosity; however, in 6, 8, and 10 M KOH electrolytes, the viscosity rose. Concentrate electrolytes' decreased conductivity and increased viscosity in a magnetic field would hin der ion transport, which would affect the MCF readings. The limiting current density (Ilim values derived from these Tafel polarization curves are displayed in Figure 16E. Whe compared to the initial outcomes obtained without adding the magnetic field, Ilim enlarge little in the 1 and 2 M KOH electrolytes and significantly in the 4 M KOH electrolyte.

The data above showed a relationship between I lim , the concentration of electrolytes, and the strength of the magnetic field. The values of the diffusion coefficients for the various concentrated KOH electrolytes in various magnetic fields are shown in Figure 16F. From the discussion, it is understood that the various magnetic forces acting on the electroactive ions cause solution convection at the electrolyte interface, which is the source of the magnetic field induced capacitance variation throughout the electrochemical reaction process. The fight among the driving force brought on by the Lorentz force and the damping force brought on by the conductivity of the electrolyte in KOH electrolytes is a key factor influencing the OH transport with the magnetic field.
