Özet

The increasing global demand for sustainable and high-performance energy storage has intensified interest in hybrid electrode materials that can combine high energy and power with long cycling stability. This review highlights the distinctive innovation of two-dimensional MXene/MOF composites, emphasizing the synergistic interplay between MXene's metallic conductivity and MOF's hierarchical porosity and redox-active sites, which collectively enhance electron transport, ion diffusion, and faradaic contribution. Key synthesis strategies, including in situ growth, solvothermal/hydrothermal routes, and post-synthetic modifications, are summarized, along with structural engineering approaches such as MOF pillaring, Ti–O–M interfacial bonding, and heteroatom/linker tuning that effectively suppress MXene restacking and reduce charge-transfer resistance. Representative studies demonstrate significant improvements in capacitance, energy density, and cycle life, underscoring the strong application potential of these hybrids from flexible electronics to electric vehicles. Remaining challenges and future research directions are also outlined to support the advancement of MXene/MOF composites toward practical commercialization.
