摘      要：Ammonia is the most basic raw material in industrial and agricultural *** current industrial production of ammonia relies on the Haber-Bosch process with high energy *** overcome this shortcoming,the development of electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis under moderate conditions is considered as a potential alternative *** two-dimensional(2D)MXenes family has been proved promising as electrocatalysts,but from the currently available literature,it is hard to find a systematic review on MXenes-catalyzed ammonia *** in the present review,we summarize the key perspectives on that topic in recent years as well as outline,from a prospective view,strategies of catalyst *** analyze in detail the methods for preparing high performance MXenes-based catalysts and the corresponding underlying mechanisms,and also discuss the criteria and potential challenges,expecting to provide inspiration for the development of efficient MXenes-based route to electrochemical ammonia fixation.
