Description
Summary:This review introduces metallenes, a cutting-edge form of atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) metals, gaining attention in energy and catalysis. Their unique physicochemical and electronic properties make them promising for applications like catalysis. Metallenes stand out due to their abundance of under-coordinated metal atoms, enhancing the catalytic potential by improving atomic utilization and intrinsic activity. This review explores the utility of 2D metals as electrocatalysts in sustainable energy conversion, focusing on the Oxygen Evolution Reaction, Oxygen Reduction Reaction, Fuel Oxidation Reaction, and Carbon Dioxide Reduction Reaction. Aimed at researchers in nanomaterials and energy, the review is a comprehensive resource for unlocking the potential of 2D metals in creating a sustainable energy landscape.
