Since the discovery of graphene, two-dimensional
(2D) materials have been receiving increased attention. The quest for new 2D
materials with unique structure and special properties becomes urgent.Herein we report on the
preparation of a new kind of ternary 2D material, Ti4AlN3 nanosheets by liquid exfoliating of the corresponding laminated MAX phase. The
obtained Ti4AlN3 nanosheets, bearing abundant surface
groups, can be further used to fabricate micro-patterns via micro-contact
printing (μCP) and subsequently functionalized through self-initiated
photografting and photopolymerization (SIPGP) to achieve MAX-based hybrid
patterned polymer brushes. Our work opens a door to explore the synthesis of 2D
hybrid materials for functional applications basing on the traditional MAX
phases.
