Patent ID: 10683208

Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a MXene nanosheet includes removing an A atomic layer from an inorganic compound having a formula of Mn+1AXn to form a nanosheet, the nanosheet having a formula of Mn+1XnTs, and reducing the nanosheet having a formula of Mn+1XnTs to form an MXene nanosheet, the MXene nanosheet having a formula of Mn+1Xn, wherein M is at least one of Group 3 transition metal, Group 4 transition metal, Group 5 transition metal, and Group 6 transition metal, A is at least one of a Group 12 element, Group 13 element, Group 14 element, Group 15 element and Group 16 element, X is one of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and a combination thereof, Ts is one of oxide (O), epoxide, hydroxide (OH), alkoxide having 1-5 carbon atoms, fluoride (F), chloride (Cl), bromide (Br), iodide (I), and a combination thereof, and n is one of 1, 2 and 3.
