摘要

The development of advanced microwave absorption materials (MAMs) is a considerably important topic because our living environment is full of electromagnetic wave pollution which threatens people's health. And MAMs are also used in radar stealth technologies for preventing the weapons from being detected. Based on the importance of MAMs in both military and civil fields, many nanomaterials have been studied as MAMs, but not all of them have the satisfactory performance. MXene, a new family of two-dimensional (2D) material, has the favorable structures and properties such as special layered structure, abundant functional groups, high electrical conductivity and high specific surface area, which make it an appropriate candidate as high-performance MAMs. In this review, we summarized the features of MXene, the theories of microwave absorption (MA) and the latest progress of MXene and MXene-based composites as MAMs. Through the summary of MXene and MXene-based composites, the advantages and shortcomings of the MXene-based composites as high performance MAMs are presented. Moreover, the future research direction of MXene and MXene-based MAMs also has been discussed in detail. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
