      Kaland, Henning; Hadler-Jacobsen, Jacob; Fagerli, Frode Håskjold; Wagner, Nils Peter; Wang, Zhaohui; Selbach, Sverre Magnus; Vullum-Bruer, Fride; Wiik, Kjell; Schnell, Sondre Kvalvåg (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      MXenes, a type of two-dimensional transition metal carbide/nitride, have received significant attention for electrochemical storage applications. With substantial capacities predicted for Mg ions, MXenes have been considered ...
    • Bulk substitution of F-terminations from Ti3C2Tx MXene by cation pillaring and gas hydrolysation 

      Fagerli, Frode Håskjold; Vullum, Per Erik; Grande, Tor; Wang, Zhaohui; Selbach, Sverre Magnus; Wiik, Kjell; Wagner, Nils Peter (Journal article, 2023)
      Applications of 2D MXenes are limited by the difficulty of controlling bulk termination groups after the initial HF etching step without forming surface oxides. Here, we report on gas hydrolysation using a continuous flow ...
    • Dipentamethylene thiuram tetrasulfide-based cathodes for rechargeable magnesium batteries 

      Kaland, Henning; Hadler-Jacobsen, Jacob; Fagerli, Frode Håskjold; Wagner, Nils Peter; Schnell, Sondre Kvalvåg; Wiik, Kjell (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Rechargeable Mg batteries (RMBs) represent a possible route for low-cost energy storage applications, but they are lacking a satisfactory cathode material. Conventional sulfur (S8) cathodes have shown promise, yet they ...
    • Performance Study of MXene/Carbon Nanotube Composites for Current Collector- and Binder-Free Mg-S Batteries 

      Kaland, Henning; Fagerli, Frode Håskjold; Hadler-Jacobsen, Jacob; Zhao-Karger, Zhirong; Fichtner, Maximilian; Wiik, Kjell; Wagner, Nils Peter (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The realization of sustainable and cheap Mg-S batteries depends on significant improvements in cycling stability. Building on the immense research on cathode optimization from Li-S batteries, for the first time a beneficial ...
    • Removing fluoride-terminations from multilayered V2CTx MXene by gas hydrolyzation 

      Fagerli, Frode Håskjold; Wang, Zhaohui; Grande, Tor; Kaland, Henning; Selbach, Sverre Magnus; Wagner, Nils Peter; Wiik, Kjell (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Two-dimensional MXenes have shown great promise for many different applications, but in order to fully utilize their potential, control of their termination groups is essential. Here we demonstrate hydrolyzation with a ...
    • Stacking Sequence, Interlayer Bonding, Termination Group Stability and Li/Na/Mg Diffusion in MXenes 

      Hadler-Jacobsen, Jacob; Fagerli, Frode Håskjold; Kaland, Henning; Schnell, Sondre KvalvÃ¥g (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      A versatile group of 2D carbide materials from the past decade, MXenes, have attracted attention for their rich chemistry and wide range of properties. The perhaps best known MXene, namely, Ti3C2Tx, has been observed to ...
