Ti2alc Titanium Aluminum Carbide Powder CAS 12537-81-4

Titanium Aluminum Carbide Powder is a MAX-phase ceramic material renowned for its unique combination of metallic and ceramic properties. Exhibiting high thermal stability (up to 1600°C), exceptional damage tolerance, and self-lubricating behavior, this layered ternary compound is ideal for extreme environments in aerospace, energy, and advanced manufacturing.

Damage Tolerance: Fracture toughness up to 12 MPa·m¹/² (exceeds conventional ceramics)
Self-Healing: Oxide layer regeneration at elevated temperatures (800-1200°C)
Machinability: Processable with standard carbide tools (unlike most ceramics)
Oxidation Resistance: Stable in air up to 1400°C via protective Al2O3/TiO2 layer formation
