MXene-based Hybrid Nano-Architectures for Environmental Remediation and Sensor Applications: From Design to Applications brings together the state-of-the-art in molecular design, synthetic approaches, unique properties, and applications of MXene-based hybrid nanomaterials, which combine 2D MXenes with low dimensional materials and open the door to novel solutions in environmental remediation, sensing, and other areas. The book begins by introducing the fundamentals of MXenes and MXene-based hybrid nano-architectures, including synthesis methods, structural design, basic properties, and characterization techniques. The second section of the book provides in-depth coverage of specific areas of environmental remediation and removal, covering gases, toxic heavy metals, organic pollutants, pharmaceuticals, organic dyes, pesticides, and inorganic pollutants. This is followed by a section focusing on targeted sensing applications, including electrochemical sensors, optical sensors, biosensors, and strain sensors. The final chapters consider other application areas for MXene-based hybrid nano-architectures, such as wearable devices and thermal energy storage, and address the other key considerations of secondary environmental contamination, toxicity, regeneration and re-use of MXenes, and future opportunities. This is a valuable resource for researchers and advanced students across nanotechnology, environmental science, biotechnology, chemistry, and materials science and engineering, as well as industrial scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals with an interest in MXenes and advanced nanomaterials for a range of advanced applications, notably in environmental remediation and sensing.
