MXenes, a groundbreaking class of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, have emerged as highly promising materials for photocatalytic applications due to their unique structural, electrical, surface properties. These are synthesized by selectively etching the A layer from MAX phases, yielding compositions with general formula Mn+1XnTx, where M is metal, X represents carbon or nitrogen, Tx refers terminations such –OH, –O, –F. This review delves into advanced synthesis techniques including fluoride-free molten salt methods, explores potential in photocatalysis environmental remediation. MXenes exhibit remarkable light absorption capabilities efficient charge carrier separation, making them effective degradation organic pollutants under visible light. Modulating chemistry bandgap via functional group modifications further enhances performance. attributes position next-generation sustainable applications, offering significant addressing global challenges.

Since the initial publication on first Ti3C2T x MXene in 2011, there has been a significant increase number of reports applications MXenes various domains. have emerged as highly promising materials for biomedical applications, including photothermal therapy (PTT), drug delivery, diagnostic imaging, and biosensing, owing to their fascinating conductivity, mechanical strength, biocompatibility hydrophilicity. Through surface modification, can mitigate cytotoxicity, enhance biological stability, improve histocompatibility, thereby enabling potential use vivo applications. are also known ability absorb light near-infrared (NIR) region generate heat by localised plasmon resonance (LSPR) effects electron-phonon coupling. Optical excitation laser pulses result hot photocarrier distribution MXenes, which quickly transfers surplus energy crystal lattice results internal conversion into with nearly 100% efficiency. The relaxation carrier interactions leads cooling dissipating thermal surrounding environment. This heating effect makes them agents (PTAs), particularly PTT adjustable high area-to-volume ratios ideal combinatorial approach along photodynamic (PDT), bone regeneration other non-Ti more biocompatible than Ti they candidates different comprehensive review provides concise overview current research patterns, properties, its approaches.
