To shield increasingly severe radiation pollution, ultrathin MXene-based electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials with excellent mechanical properties are urgently demanded in wearable electrical devices or aerospace fields. However, it is still a challenge to fabricate ultrastrong and stiff MXene-based nanocomposites with excellent EMI shielding capacity in a universal and scalable manner. Here, inspired by the natural nacre structure, we propose an efficient superspreading strategy to construct a highly oriented layered "brick-and-mortar" structure using shear-flow-induced alignment of MXene nanosheets at an immiscible hydrogel/oil interface. A continuous and large-area MXene nanocomposite film has been fabricated through a homemade industrial-scale continuous fabrication setup. The prepared MXene nanocomposite films exhibit a tensile strength of 647.6 ± 56 MPa and a Young's modulus of 59.8 ± 6.1 GPa, respectively. These outstanding mechanical properties are attributed to the continuous interphase layer that formed between the well-aligned MXene nanosheets. Moreover, the obtained MXene nanocomposites also show great EMI shielding effectiveness (51.6 dB). We consider that our MXene-based nanocomposite films may be potentially applied as electrical or aerospace devices with superior mechanical properties and high EMI shielding capacity.
