Abstract The exfoliated 2D nanosheets of layered metal compounds attract intense research interest because of their unique physicochemical properties and useful functionalities. The 2D inorganic nanosheets can be synthesized by soft-chemical exfoliation reaction and used as efficient building blocks for heterostructured nanohybrids, porous nanocomposites, multilayered films, freestanding hybrid films, etc. The resulting 3D hybrid materials possess diverse promising applicabilities for energy and environmental technologies. In this talk, several practical examples of the 2D inorganic/graphene nanosheets will be presented together with their self-assembled nanohybrids having tailorable physicochemical properties and functionalities such as electrode activity, photocatalytic activity, redox catalytic activity, electrocatalytic activity, gas adsorption capability, and nanobio application.
