3D Printing With MXenes for Next‐Generation Implantable Devices and Tissue Engineering Applications

Abstract MXenes are 2D metal carbides/nitrides that are exploited for their exceptional properties of high electrical and thermal conductivity, mechanical strength, chemical stability, and biocompatibility. They find their applications in flexible electronics, storage devices, water purification systems, sensors, thermal management, electromagnetic interference shielding, catalysis, and biomedicine. They are incorporated with different materials such as polymers, graphene, and quantum dots using multiple techniques, including in situ polymerization, chemical vapor deposition, co‐precipitation, electrospinning, and 3D printing. However, MXenes integrated 3D printing technology opens new dimensions for research in biomedicine. This innovative approach allows for the development of advanced biomaterials such as tissue engineering scaffolds and implantable devices with enhanced biocompatibility, conductivity, and mechanical strength. Further, MXenes‐based 3D printed materials can enhance cell proliferation, support cell adhesion, and promote tissue integration, aiding in regenerating damaged or diseased cells. This review explores the current state of MXenes‐enhanced 3D printing solutions in biomedicine, highlighting its applications and future directions. Leveraging the unique properties of MXenes, 3D printing is poised to revolutionize biomedicine by enabling the development of advanced and functional implantable devices that enhance human health and improve the quality of life.
