MXene Electrochemistry
Winner: 2021 Faraday Division Horizon Prize
For novel studies on 乐天堂app下载 electrochemical properties and energy storage applications of MXenes.
Celebrate 乐天堂app下载 MXene Electrochemistry partnership
#RSCPrizes
A partnership between researchers developing novel two-dimensional (2D) materials – MXenes – led by Yury Gogotsi at Drexel University, and exploring 乐天堂app下载ir electrochemistry and energy storage applications, led by Patrice Simon at Paul Sabatier University, has won 乐天堂app下载 Faraday Division Horizon Prize.
MXenes are 2D nanometer-thin materials (where M stands for a metal, like titanium or molybdenum, and X for carbon or nitrogen). MXenes are a very large family of 2D materials with more than 100 stoichiometric structures possible, with virtually an infinite number of compositions if atoms are randomly mixed in a so-called solid solution. This potentially makes MXenes one of 乐天堂app下载 largest families of inorganic materials in general, not just in 乐天堂app下载 2D world.
