2D materials consist of a single or a few layers, each layer being one or several atoms thickness. The use of the 2D substrate facilitates the design and discovery of 2D based advanced functional materials with tuneable and superior properties from the parent 2D material through hydrothermal approaches. The utilisation of creative synthetic protocols, such as batch and continuous hydrothermal flow syntheses, create diverse and unique opportunities to engineer and deliver 2D derivatives with new or enhanced characteristics, and even unexpected new phenomena.
