description Highlights The design of composite membrane with biomimetic micro-nanostructured superhydrophobic surface and (V1/2Mo1/2)2C MXene photothermal nanomaterials. The double‐transition‐metal (V1/2Mo1/2)2CTx MXene exhibits enhanced photothermal conversion performance via the elevated joint densities of states. The (V1/2Mo1/2)2CTx MXene-200 composite membrane achieves an evaporation rate of 2.23 kg m−2 h−1 under one sun, directed salt harvesting, and excellent multifunctionality of anti-/de-icing, anti-fouling, and antibacterial.
