Drexel turns MXene into nanoscrolls in a push to make 2D nanomaterials more usable
Researchers at Drexel University say they have developed a scalable method for turning MXene, a conductive 2D nanomaterial, into nanoscrolls that could improve ion transport in batteries, sensors and wearable devices. The work, reported March 31, 2026, in Advanced Materials, also suggests a route to more accessible, room-temperature processing of flexible conductive films.
