MXenes have recently emerged as a promising candidate for energy storage devices due to their high volumetric capacitance and robust energy profile. However, MXenes are prone to surface oxidation and layer re-stacking, which compromise their practical applications in energy storage. Here, we propose a simple approach to directly transform 2D T3C2Tx MXene nanosheets into 3D carbon-coated T3C2Tx architecture. The nanohybrid was synthesized by achieving self-polymerization of dopamine over the surface of pristine Ti3C2Tx nanosheets followed by freeze-drying and carbonization under an inert air atmosphere. The self-polymerization of dopamine not only facilitated the transformation of 2D Ti3C2Tx sheets into 3D tremella-like architecture, but its subsequent carbonization resulted in complete coverage of a thin carbon coating that preserves the structure from both air-oxidation and structural aggregation. The 3D tremella-like architecture (T-MXene@C) with active and stable surface-facets facilitated fast charge transportation, ultrahigh capacity, superior rate performance, and long cyclability when being used as anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). In the case of LIBs, the T-MXene@C exhibited a high capacity of 499.4 mA h g(-1) at 0.2 C and 101.5 mA h g(-1) at 100 C. Whereas, a high capacity of 257.6 mA h g(-1) at 0.05 A g(-1) after 200 cycles and 77.8 mA h g(-1) at 10 A g(-1) were obtained for SIBs, respectively. In addition, long cycle durability with a capacity retention of 91.7% at 1 A g(-1) after 3000 cycles with a 0.00277% decay per cycle was achieved, endowing T-MXene@C capability to serve as a prospective hybrid for the energy applications.
