Delicately aligned structures of two-dimensional (2D) MXene nanosheets have demonstrated positive effects on applications, especially in electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and infrared (IR) stealth. However, precise regulation of structural assembly by theory-guided solution processing is still a great challenge. Herein, one-dimensional (1D) cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) with a high aspect ratio are applied as a reinforcing agent and a rheological modifier for MXene/CNF colloids to fabricate aligned MXene-based materials for EMI shielding and IR stealth. Notably, a systematical rheological study of the MXene/CNF colloids is proposed to determine the optimal solution-processing conditions for finely oriented component arrangement requirements and provides in-depth information on the interactions between the components. The delicately regulated orientation structure assembled by shear inducement is convincingly demonstrated through micro-CT and wide-angle X-ray diffraction/small-angle X-ray scattering (WAXD/SAXS), which endows the MXene/CNF film with a significantly enhanced electrical conductivity of 46 685 S m–¹, a tensile strength of 281.7 MPa, and Young’s modulus of 14.8 GPa. Furthermore, the highly aligned structure of the ultrathin film possesses a great enhancement in EMI shielding effectiveness (50.2 dB) and IR stealth (0.562 emissivity). These findings provide a fruitful understanding of the optimized fabrication in solution processing of high-performance MXene-based functional composite films and open up a great opportunity for the development of multifunctional stealth materials.
