ABSTRACT
Technological advancement in the field of electronics has led to an increase in electromagnetic waves, which have a direct impact on humans as well as on nature. These waves interfere with devices, which results in their malfunction. Electromagnetic interference shielding materials are employed to address this interference. Many traditional materials have been employed for the application such as nanotubes, metal nanoparticles, and graphene. In 2011, Gogotsi and co-workers found a new type of 2D inorganic nanoparticles called MXenes, which have superior electrical conductivity. These materials have a promising future due to their excellent properties and hydrophilic nature. This chapter discusses various fillers used for EMI shielding, the rise of MXenes, their synthesis, and challenges. The MXenes are still in their infancy but have a prosperous future.
