In this research work, emerged nanomaterial (MXene) and Ethylene Glycol (EG) as base fluid is used to formulate a homogenous mixture of nanofluid with promising optical properties. Amphiphilic structure of ethylene glycol allows the dispersion of water and MXene nanoflakes appropriately. The studie...
