A big thank you to our collaborators for an exciting achievement recently published in Graphene and 2D Nanomaterials!
The team has developed MXene–silk fibroin composite films designed to deliver tunable electronic and thermal properties, opening new opportunities for wearable and biocompatible electronics.
The research shows that these composites, based on Ti₃C₂Tₓ MXenes, maintain strong AC conductivity and EMI shielding in the THz range, even as silk fibroin content increases.
While DC conductivity is significantly reduced, this trade-off enables precise control over thermal and electrical behavior.
Importantly, silk encapsulation was found to accelerate recovery dynamics after optical excitation.
This breakthrough provides a sustainable and versatile platform for engineering next-generation flexible materials with customizable performance tailored to specific technological needs.
