Recent Progress in the Applications of MXene‐Based Materials in Multivalent Ion Batteries

Abstract Multivalent‐ion batteries have garnered significant attention as promising alternatives to traditional lithium‐ion batteries due to their higher charge density and potential for sustainable energy storage solutions. Nevertheless, the slow diffusion of multivalent ions is the primary issue with electrode materials for multivalent‐ion batteries. In this review, the suitability of MXene‐based materials for multivalent‐ion batteries applications is explored, focusing onions such as magnesium (Mg 2+ ), aluminum (Al 3+ ), zinc (Zn 2+ ), and beyond. The unique structure of MXene offers large interlayer spacing and abundant surface functional groups that facilitates efficient ion intercalation and diffusion, making it an excellent candidate for multivalent‐ion batteries electrodes with excellent specific capacity and power density. The latest advancements in MXene synthesis and engineering techniques to enhance its electrochemical performance have been summarized and discussed. With the versatility of MXenes and their ability to harness diverse multivalent ions, this review underscores the promising future of MXene‐based materials in revolutionizing the landscape of multivalent‐ion batteries.
