Tailoring MXene Surface Chemistry: Strategies, Mechanisms, and Functional Applications.
Review in Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
MXenes, a burgeoning family of two-dimensional transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, have garnered significant attention due to their metallic conductivity, hydrophilicity, and surface-rich chemistry, offering immense potential across electrochemical energy storage, catalysis, and advanced sensing. Achieving precise control over their surface chemistry is pivotal for tailoring physicochemical properties and unlocking application-specific functionalities. This review comprehensively summarizes recent progress in MXene chemistry modulation via advanced synthesis protocols and post-synthetic modifications, with an emphasis on surface terminations and interlayer engineering. We discuss the influence of etching conditions, delamination strategies, and intercalation chemistries on the structural and electronic characteristics of MXenes. Moreover, mechanistic insights into ion intercalation and surface functional group evolution are critically analyzed to guide rational design strategies. Key challenges-including batch-to-batch variability, limited scalability, and insufficient mechanistic understanding of surface transformations-are also addressed. This review provides a forward-looking perspective on engineering MXenes with tunable interfaces for next-generation applications in energy, catalysis, and flexible electronic skin systems.
