MXene‐based Lightning Strike Protection Coating In article number 2100803, Vipin Kumar and co‐workers investigate MXene as an effective filler to improve the electrical and mechanical properties of divinylbenzene (DVB) thermosetting resin. Its performance as a lightning strike protection coating for carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is evaluated. MXenes‐DVB coating reduces the lightning surface damage from 40.61 cm 2 (reference CFRP panel) to 13.29 cm 2 (CFRP coated with 72 g cm −2 weight of MXenes‐DVB).
