Abstract

Hydrogen energy acquires global demand due to the Sustainable Development Goals put forward by the United Nations and receives widespread attention to clean energy resources and technologies. Hydrogen energy sources have the capability of producing energy in a sustainable, cost-effective, and environment-friendly approach. The selection of a suitable catalytic material for hydrogen energy storage is an important criterion. Among the various types of catalysts available, MAX-phase materials have received significant research interest due to their light-in-weight, ultrathin structure, large surface area, tunable surface chemistry with high availability of active-sites, etc. The MAX-phase materials as such can be used for hydrogen storage without any additional treatment or processing. The potential application of MAX-phase materials for hydrogen storage is lacking in the literature. This motivated us to write this review that deals with the various synthetic strategies for their large-scale synthesis, salient features, and application in hydrogen energy storage. The properties, such as mechanical, electrical, magnetic, and optical properties, are discussed.
