High‐Performance Zn²⁺‐Crosslinked MXene Fibers for Versatile Flexible Electronics

Abstract The advent of flexible electronics has prompted the development of functional fibers with superior mechanical and electrical properties. MXenes, a novel family of 2D functional materials, have a variety of potential applications in flexible electronics. Herein, wet‐spinning is employed to continuously assemble Ti₃C₂T_x MXene liquid crystals into macroscopic fibers. Meanwhile, Zn²⁺ is introduced into the fiber to eliminate the electrostatic repulsion between the MXene nanosheets and enhance interlayer interactions and sheet alignment. The as‐obtained MXene fibers have strong mechanical strength (150.7 MPa), high electrical conductivity (3637.9 S cm⁻¹), and good flexibility that facilitates weaving and knotting, making them suitable for fabric‐like flexible devices. The sound pressure sensors are woven from MXene fibers, which feature quick response time (286 ms) and recovery time (642 ms), ultra‐high sensitivity (280.2 kPa⁻¹), and a low detection limit (0.1 Pa). Sound detection and recording are achieved using this sensor. MXene fibers as wearable thermal management devices are also demonstrated, exhibiting fast Joule thermal responses and good cycling stability.
