Graphene - Mxene GMX Composites
We produce advanced GMX composites—hybrid materials that combine the exceptional electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, and flexibility of graphene with the high surface area, hydrophilicity, and tunable functionalities of MXenes. By synergistically integrating these two components, our composites deliver enhanced electrochemical performance, improved mechanical integrity, and superior stability for a wide range of technological applications.
Technical Properties
- Exceptional electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, and flexibility.
- Challenges include hydrophobicity and a tendency to restack.
- 2D transition metal carbides, nitrides, or carbonitrides with the formula Mₙ₊₁XₙTₓ (M = early transition metal; X = carbon or nitrogen; Tₓ = surface terminations such as –OH, –O, or –F).
- High metallic conductivity (~6000 S·cm⁻¹), excellent hydrophilicity, and rich surface functionalities.
Techniques such as solution processing, electrostatic self-assembly, vacuum filtration, and hydrothermal synthesis integrate MXene nanosheets within graphene layers, preventing restacking and enhancing ion diffusion.
Products and Applications
GMX composites are especially promising for energy storage devices—like supercapacitors and batteries—where their high conductivity and large surface area enable excellent charge storage and fast ion transport. They are also explored for electrocatalysis (including oxygen reduction and hydrogen evolution reactions), biomedical applications, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, and flexible electronics, owing to their enhanced charge transfer kinetics and tunable electronic and mechanical properties.
