Few-layer Ti3C2Tx was prepared in high yield by a solvothermal intercalation and exfoliation method. Due to the abundant oxygen-containing functional groups on surface present after reaction, polyaniline (PANI) nanorods were loaded sheets situ polymerization obtain Ti3C2Tx/PANI composite electrode material. Benefiting from tight molecular binding fast ion transport channels, material exhibited excellent capacitor properties with specific capacity of 508 F g−1 at 1 A an energy density 8.93 Wh kg−1.
