Abstract

Compared with individual two-dimensional MoS₂ and MXene, MoS₂/MXene nanocomposites show excellent and stable physical and chemical properties, attracting widespread attention among domestic and foreign researchers. This paper reviews recent research progress in MoS₂/MXene nanocomposites. First, the preparation methods of MoS₂/MXene nanocomposites as well as their advantages and disadvantages are elaborated, including hydrothermal methods, intercalation methods and thermal annealing. Then, the applications of MoS₂/MXene composites in various fields are introduced, such as energy storage, catalysis and sensors. In the end, the prospects of future development and application of MoS₂/MXene nanocomposites are proposed.
