Achieving superlubricity with 2D transition metal carbides (MXenes) and MXene/graphene coatings

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have demonstrated unique friction and antiwear properties unmatched by their bulk (3D) counterparts. A relatively new, large and quickly growing family of two-dimensional early transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes) present a great potential in different appli...
