Exfoliation Energy as a Descriptor of MXenes Synthesizability and Surface Chemical Activity

MXenes are two-dimensional nanomaterials isolated from MAX phases by selective extraction of the A component—a <i>p</i>-block element. The MAX exfoliation energy, <i>E<sub>exf</sub></i>, is considered a chemical descriptor of the MXene synthesizability. Here, we s...
