Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nowadays, in order to circumvent energy and environmental issues in the development of electrified vehicles, electrochemical energy storage devices, including ion batteries and supercapacitors, are important in a wide range of fields. The high performance of batteries and supercapacitors is determined by the structure of their electrode materials, the compatibility of their electrolytes, the stability of their collectors, the assembly of batteries and so on.

However, state-of-the-art energy storage devices still suffer from limited energy/power density, short cycling and lower safety. Much effort have been made to improve their performance, e.g., advanced nanostructured cathode materials, new types of electrolytes, current collector majorization. Additionally, further understanding storage mechanisms is key to good analysis. Therefore, in this Special Issue, we are looking for research into novel designs of electrode materials, electrolytes and storage device assembly, as well as storage mechanisms.

Nb2CTx is an important member of MXene family. It has attracted widespread attention because of its abundant functional groups, high hydrophilicity, high electrical conductivity as well as low ion transport barrier, showing great potential in various applications. In order to utilize the advantages of Nb2CTx MXene, the progress of preparation, properties and applications are reviewed in this work. This work focuses on different methods of Nb2CTx preparation and applications in electrochemical energy storage (supercapacitors and secondary batteries), electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution, photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, sensors, etc. Additionally, the main problems of self-stacking and prospect of Nb2CTx MXene are discussed.
