Abstract: Two-dimensional transition metal carbon/nitrides (MXenes) have emerged as prominent materials in the development of high-performance electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding films owing to their exceptional electrical conductivity, special layered structure, and chemically active surfaces. Substantial efforts have been devoted to addressing the poor mechanical strength and limited functionality of pure MXene films through structural design and interfacial reinforcement. However, there is a notable lack of a systematic review of the research on MXene-based EMI shielding films with multi-layer structures, which could provide a theoretical foundation and technical guidance for the development and application of shielding films. This review aims to summarize the recent advancements in MXene-based layered films for EMI shielding. First, the structure and properties of MXene nanosheets are systematically introduced. Next, the optimization of layered structures and interfacial reinforcement strategies in MXene-based EMI shielding films are objectively reviewed, followed by a discussion of their multifunctional compatibility. Finally, future prospects and challenges for MXene-based layered EMI shielding films are highlighted.
