•MXene is highly appealing for microwave absorption (MA) applications.•The progress in the preparation of MXene composites and MA properties was explored.•The prospects and opportunities of MXene-based MA materials was discussed. Recently, the development of advanced microwave-absorbing materials has attracted widespread attention from scholars, to reduce electromagnetic pollution caused by electronic equipment. Compared with traditional nanomaterials, MXene is the brightest star in two-dimensional materials. The abundance of functional groups, distinctive layered structure, adjustable conductivity, and exceptional physical and chemical properties render it highly appealing for microwave absorption applications. Through the combination of MXene with other materials and the design of innovative microstructures, microwave absorption performance can be significantly enhanced and tailored, facilitating its practical applications. Herein, this review introduces the synthesis strategies of MXene-based materials, the progress in the preparation of MXene composites and microwave absorption properties, and discusses the prospects of MXene-based microwave absorption materials. This review introduces the synthesis strategies of MXene-based materials, the progress in the preparation of MXene composites and MA properties, and discusses the prospects and opportunities of MXene-based MA materials.
