This listing
is for: MAX Phase Titanium Aluminum Carbide (MAX Ti3AlC2)
Quantity options: 10g ; 20g
Titanium Aluminum Carbide (Ti3AlC2 ; CAS 196506-01-1) is a ternary ceramics made of aluminum, titanium and carbon. This ceramic has unique layered structure, similar to graphite, known as MAX phase. This structure affords ceramics material with mechanical properties similar to metal such as ductility and low hardness.
The layered morphology of this material is visible in the SEM pictures shown in this listing.
MAX Ti3AlC2 is used as starting material for preparing graphite-like Titanium Carbide (MXene Ti3C2) by dissolving the aluminum layers with acid. The resulting two dimensional Ti3C2 MXene is very different than conventional cubic TiC in stoichiometry and crystal structure.
MAX phase materials are also being researched as construction materials for jet engines and as high temperature self-healing ceramics.
The MAX Ti3AlC2 on sale here was analyzed by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to confirm crystal structure and particle size.
The pictures are actual test results obtained from the inventory listed here for sale. These are not generic copies.
