摘要

MXenes, a new class of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides and nitrides, have shown remarkable potential in tribology for mitigating wear and friction. As a result of their unique structure, low shear resistance, and simplicity of modification, they are therefore excellent choices for lubricant additives and shielding layers in mechanical mechanisms due to their remarkable thermal stability, strength, and tendency for superficial chemistry. This study focuses on MXene functionalization, its role as a lubricant additive, and categorizes its mechanism of operation into phases. The compatibility of MXenes with other additives, alongside their synergistic and antagonistic effects, was also covered in the study. Furthermore, it highlights several untapped research areas, summarizes the challenges of lubrication, and presents potential solutions and future research opportunities. The potential and advancements of MXenes in lubrication have been thoroughly confirmed. In terms of friction reduction, the new MXene lubricants are expected to have outstanding potential for use in advanced manufacturing sectors, notably the aerospace and automotive industries, as well as in machining applications.
