MAX Special Ceramics Material Titanium Aluminum Carbide Ti2AlC Powder

Titanium aluminum carbide powder, known as titanium aluminum carbon, is a better grain refiner for aluminum developed in the past 20 years. Titanium carbide is a member of the Max phase ceramics family. In the oxidation process of titanium aluminum carbide (Ti3AlC2), the selective oxidation of Al can generate a continuous Al2O3 protective film. The experimental results also show that the titanium aluminum carbide (Ti3AlC2) has excellent thermal cycling resistance, and the oxide film generated is compact, well combined with the matrix, and does not peel off. The oxide film of titanium silicon carbide (Ti3SiC2) at high temperature is divided into two layers: the outer layer is TiO2, the inner layer is a mixture of TiO2 and SiO2, the density of the oxide film, and the adhesion with the matrix are good.

The Al in the MAX phase of the Ti-Al-C system can rapidly diffuse and selectively oxidize to form a dense Al2O3 film in the oxidation process, which prevents the matrix material from further oxidation. The microstructure of the interface between Ti3AlC2 and Ti2AlC and the generated Al2O3 makes the system material possess high-temperature self-healing ability. In a high-temperature environment, the cracks or marks on the material's surface are filled with this oxide so that the material can restore the original properties, especially the mechanical properties. This characteristic is of great significance for maintaining the mechanical properties of materials and improving their stability and reliability, making them more likely to be applied in a high-temperature environment.

The rapid Al diffusion and selective oxidation properties of titanium aluminum carbide (Ti3AlC2 and Ti2AlC) at high temperatures realize the welding of the material itself and the welding between layers, respectively. Compared with single-phase materials, the fracture toughness of laminated Ti3AlC2 and Ti2AlC materials obtained by self-welding is greatly improved.

How is Titanium Aluminum Carbide Ti2AlC Powder Produced?

The utility model relates to a Zr Al C MAX phase ceramic powder product preparation method. The preparation method of a molten salt method involved in the synthesis of Zr Al C MAX phase ceramic powder products with metal Al powder, metal Zr powder, C powder as raw material, with NaCl and KCl composed of alkali metal salt as a molten salt medium, the raw material and metal halogen salt mechanical mixing of mixed powder in a graphite crucible, In the circulation of argon or vacuum conditions of heating, heat preservation, washing, drying: powder. The molten salt method synthesized Zr Al C MAX phase ceramic powder. Compared with the traditional preparation method, the synthesis temperature is lower, the speed is faster, and the process is simple.

Applications of Titanium Aluminum Carbide Ti2AlC Powder:

Similarly, using the weak bond between Al lamellas and TiC lamellas in the Max phase of titanium aluminum carbide (Ti3AlC2), the use of hydrofluoric acid (HF) can be used to bare Al in titanium aluminum carbide (Ti3AlC2) to produce a new two-dimensional carbide, called "MXENE," whose morphology is similar to that of graphene. Maxine's excellent conductivity makes it possible to be used as a lithium-ion battery material.

Max phase products, especially titanium silicon carbide (Ti3SiC2), have a series of characteristics such as high damage tolerance and good mechanical and thermal properties, which make it possible to be used in the fourth-generation nuclear reactor as the nuclear fuel cladding material in a gas-cooled fast reactor. In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to the anti-radiation damage ability of titanium silicon carbide (Ti3SiC2).
