Robust PANI@MXene/GQDs Based Fibre Fabric Electrodes via Microfluidic Wet-Fusing Spinning Chemistry.

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal titanium carbide (Ti 3 C 2 T x ) as a promising candidate material for batteries and supercapacitors has shown excellent electrochemical performance, but it is difficult to meet practical applications because of its poor morphology structure, low mechanical properties, and expensive process. Here, w e propose an applied and efficient method based on microfluidic wet-fusing spinning chemistry (MWSC) to construct hierarchical structure of MXene-based fibre fabrics (MFFs), allowing the availability of MFF electrodes with ultra-strong toughness, high conductivity and easily machinable properties. First, a dot-sheet structure constructed by graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and MXene nanosheets with multi-anchor interaction in the microchannel of a microfluidic device enhances the mechanical strength of MXene fibers; next, the interfused fiber network structure of Ti 3 C 2 T x /GQDs fabrics assembled by the MWSC process enhances the deformability of the whole fabrics; finally, the core-shell structure of PANI@Ti 3 C 2 T x /GQDs architected by in situ polymerization growth of polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers provides more ion-accessible pathways and sites for kinetic migration and ion accumulation. Through the morphology and microstructure design, this strategy has directive significance to the large-scale preparation of conductive fabric electrodes and provides a viable solution for simultaneously enhancing mechanical strength and electrochemical performance of conductive fabric electrodes.
