Magnesium hydride is an attractive material for solid-state hydrogen storage and for
hydrogen generation via hydrolysis due to its high capacity of hydrogen and low cost. However,
the hydrolysis reaction is rapidly hindered by the passivation layer formed on the surface of MgH2.
In order to improve MgH2 hydrolysis efficiency various approaches have been applied. The present
study examines the influence of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides or MXenes on
thermolysis and hydrolysis of the nanostructured MgH2
