Mbenes, two-dimensional transition metal borides, was discovered in 2017 and showed similar structural properties with transition metal carbides and nitrides known as MXenes. MBenes display great potential in various applications, including sensing and catalysis, due to their high electrical conductivity, the rich content of surface functional groups, the easy modification of surface functional groups and/or surface chemistry, the large physical surface area, and the hydrophilic surface properties. Despite its great potential, the research focused on MBenes is in the infant stage, and further research should be conducted to unravel the real potential of those new material families, especially in advanced materials science. This review briefly defines the structure and synthesis of MBenes, and their differences from those of Mxenes are explained in detail.}, number={1}, publisher={İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi}
