Researchers have produced more than 30 types of MXene to date, each with a slightly different set of properties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The research group Used two of them the to make \u00a0the silicon-MXene anodes for testing: titanium carbide and titanium carbonitride. \u00a0\u00a0Researchers made another anode from graphene-wrapped silicon nanoparticles. \u201cAll three anode samples showed higher lithium-ion capacity than current graphite or silicon-carbon anodes used in Li-ion batteries as well as superior conductivity. The silicon-MXene anodes had on the order of 100 to 1,000 times higher conductivity than conventional silicon anodes.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>Good for Mass Production<\/h4>\n<p>\u201cThe continuous network of MXene nanosheets not only provides sufficient electrical conductivity and free space for accommodating the volume change but also well resolves the mechanical instability of Si,\u201d according to the researchers. \u201cTherefore, the combination of viscous MXene ink and high-capacity Si offers a powerful technique to construct advanced nanostructures with exceptional performance.\u201d The process of slurry-casting MXene-silicon anodes is <a href=\"https:\/\/drexel.edu\/now\/archive\/2019\/February\/MXene-silicon-anode\/\">scalable for mass production of anodes<\/a> of any size, which means they could make their way into batteries that power just about any of our devices.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13645\" style=\"width: 538px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/sustainableskies.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/SEM_of_MXene.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13645\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13645\" src=\"http:\/\/sustainableskies.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/SEM_of_MXene-528x450.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"450\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13645\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scanning electron microscope (SEM) view of MXene layers<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Researchers found that slurry casting prevented the silicon anode from expanding to its breaking point, something other researchers have attempted for the last decade.
