Low strength has always been one of the main factors limiting the application of foams. We acquire a natural rubber latex/MXene foam composite with high strength and versatility by adding MXene to the natural rubber latex. It is shown that natural rubber latex foam (NRF) with 2 and 3 phr of MXene shows obviously enhanced tensile strength by 171% and 157% separately as compared to that of neat NRF. Furthermore, the composite also has better electrical conductivity and electromagnetic shielding than NRF, which can be used in the automotive industry, aviation industry, and many other aspects.

天然橡胶乳胶/ MXene泡沫，具有坚固而多功能的性能

低强度一直是限制泡沫应用的主要因素之一。通过向天然橡胶乳胶中添加MXene，我们获得了具有高强度和多功能性的天然橡胶乳胶/ MXene泡沫复合材料。结果表明，与纯NRF相比，含2和3 phr MXene的天然橡胶胶乳泡沫（NRF）分别具有171％和157％的明显增强的拉伸强度。此外，该复合材料还具有比NRF更好的导电性和电磁屏蔽性能，可用于汽车工业，航空工业和许多其他方面。
