MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641024437 A) filed by Chennai Institute Of Technology, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on March 2, for 'mxene coating on ito glass using ultraprobe sonicator for sensing and photocatalysis applications.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. D. Vasvini Mary; and Dr. S. Rubesh Ashok Kumar.

The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Transition metal carbides, commonly referred to as MXenes, are a fascinating class of materials generated through the selective etching of the "A" layers from their layered ternary parent compounds, known as MAX phases. In this nomenclature, "M" represents early d-transition metals, while "A" denotes a main group sp-element sourced from either Group 13 or 14 of the periodic table. The "X" in MXenes typically indicates the presence of carbon or nitrogen. MXenes have garnered significant attention in recent years as a new and emerging class of two-dimensional (2D) materials, characterized by their unique structure and remarkable properties. These materials display an exceptionally large specific surface area, which is advantageous for various applications, as it allows for a higher concentration of active sites. Additionally, MXenes exhibit outstanding electrical conductivity, making them particularly appealing for use in electronic devices and energy storage systems. The exceptional physical and electrochemica."
