TL;DR: In this paper, the aluminum-containing solid solution Mn+1AXn phases were synthesized using Rietveld analysis of powder X-ray diffraction patterns to calculate the lattice parameters and phase fractions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability of V2AlC with Al in 800–1000 °C temperature range and in situ synthesis of V2AlC/Al composites
TL;DR: In this paper, two-phase Al-V2AlC composites were synthesized from elemental powders, and the nominal compositions were chosen so that in situ reactions would produce either a 75/25 vol. % Al/V2C or a 50/50 vol.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the interactions of Ti2AlC, Ti3AlC2, Ti3SiC2 and Cr2AlC with silicon carbide and pyrolytic carbon at 1300 °C ☆
TL;DR: In this article, the MAX phases, namely, Ti 2 AlC, Ti 3 AlC 2, Ti 3 SiC 2 and Cr 7 C 3, were assembled and heated to 1300°C under a load corresponding to a uniaxial stress of ∼30MPa for 4, 10, and 30h in a vacuum hot press, at a vacuum level of less than 1Pa.
Journal ArticleDOI
High‐Temperature Neutron Diffraction, Raman Spectroscopy, and First‐Principles Calculations of Ti3SnC2 and Ti2SnC
G.W. Bentzel,Michael Naguib,Nina J. Lane,Sven C. Vogel,Volker Presser,Sylvain Dubois,Jun Lu,Lars Hultman,Michel W. Barsoum,El’ad N. Caspi +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the additive-free bulk synthesis of Ti3SnC2 was reported, and a detailed experimental study of the structure of the latter together with a secondary phase, Ti2SnC, was presented through the use of X-ray diffraction (XRD), and high-resolution transmission microscopy (HRTEM).
Journal ArticleDOI
On the interactions of Ti2AlC, Ti3AlC2, Ti3SiC2 and Cr2AlC with pure sodium at 550 °C and 750 °C
TL;DR: In this paper, the interaction of the Mn+1AXn phases with pure molten sodium was investigated using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques.
