Recent Advances in MXene‐Based 3D‐Printed Smart Textiles: A Review on Functional Properties, Fabrication Processes, and Applications
Recent advancements in 3D‐printed smart textiles based on MXene have revolutionized wearable technology. MXenes, a class of 2D transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, offer exceptional structural, thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties, making them ideal for smart fabric applications. This review explores their use in wearable electronics, biomedical sensors, energy storage, environmental monitoring, and electromagnetic shielding. Key production processes influencing MXene performance in textiles are discussed, alongside challenges in scalability, durability, and sustainability. MXene‐based smart textiles represent a transformative direction in materials science, paving the way for intelligent, functional, and responsive wearable devices. Prospects for intelligent and responsive wearable devices will be created by the ongoing research and development that powers the advancement of MXene‐enabled textiles.
