Of all the M n+ 1AX n phases, the most resistant to oxidation in air in the 900–1,400° C
temperature range are Ti2AlC, Ti3AlC2 and Cr2AlC. A literature review, however, shows that …

Layered MAX phases possess distinctive chemical, physical, electrical, and mechanical
properties due to their amalgamation of metallic and ceramic characteristics. Understanding …

Density functional theory is used to provide theoretical insights into the ternary
nanolaminated and layered transition metal boride (MAB phase) of MoAlB, with calculations …

First-principles calculations were used to estimate the anisotropic elastic and thermal
properties of Ti2lnX (X= C, N) and Zr2lnX (X= C, N) M2AX phases. The crystals' elastic …

Dense and predominantly single-phase Cr 2 AlC MAX phase coatings without columnar
structure were fabricated using an easy combined arc/sputtering deposition method followed …

High purity MoAlB powder was synthesized at 1100° C starting from MoB and Al powders
with a molar ratio of 1–1.6. The excess of Al contributed to achieve a single phase MoAlB …

The oxidation behaviors of Ti 3 AlC 2 and Ti 3 Al 0.8 Sn 0.2 C 2 powders in air over the
temperature range from 450 to 900℃ have been comprehensively compared. First …

Sn doping is usually adopted to prepare Ti 3 AlC 2 in mass production because it can
reduce the synthesis temperature while increasing the phase purity. However, excessive Sn …

Like many FeCrAl-based alloys, and some MAX phases, the atomically laminated boride,
MoAlB, forms slow-growing, adherent Al 2 O 3 scales when heated in air to 1350 C. Herein …

Abstract Spark Plasma Sintering and Hot Isostatic Pressing were used to synthesize coarse-
grained and fine-grained Ti 3 AlC 2 specimens. Moreover, Spark Plasma Sintering …
