文摘The effect of etching environment(opened or closed)on the synthesis and electrochemical properties of V_(2)C MXene was studied.V_(2)C MXene samples were synthesized by selectively etching of V2AlC at 90℃in two different environments:opened environment(OE)in oil bath pans under atmosphere pressure and closed environment(CE)in hydrothermal reaction kettles under higher pressures.In OE,only NaF(sodium fluoride)+HCl(hydrochloric acid)etching solution can be used to synthesize highly pure V_(2)C MXene.However,in CE,both LiF(lithium fluoride)+HCl and NaF+HCl etchant can be used to prepare V_(2)C MXene.Moreover,the V_(2)C MXene samples made in CE had higher purity and better-layered structure than those made in OE.Although the purity of V_(2)C obtained by LiF+HCl is lower than that of V_(2)C obtained using NaF+HCl,it shows better electrochemical performance as anodes of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs).Therefore,etching in CE is a better method for preparing highly pure V_(2)C MXene,which provides a reference for expanding the synthesis methods of V_(2)C with better electrochemical properties.
