Titanium Aluminum Carbide Micron Powder

Titanium Aluminum Carbide (Ti₂AlC) system has attracted attention due to its interesting properties. The structure of Ti2AlC is found to be hexagonal with lattice constants of a = 0.304 nm and c = 1.360 nm. Ti2AlC offers easy machinability, low density, good electrical and thermal conductivity, and excellent thermal shock and high-temperature oxidation resistance. Ti2AlC has a low density of 4.1 g/cm3 and a high electrical conductivity of 3×106 Ω−1 m−1.  The mechanical properties of Ti₂AlC are important for industrial applications. The bulk modulus of Ti2AlC (186 GPa), it has a brittle to the ductile transition temperature of approximately 1050 °C, and shear modulus of Ti2AlC at 1000 °C is 88% of its shear modulus at room temperature. These properties make Ti2AlC micron powder appropriate for different high-temperature applications. Ti2AlC is extensively used in ceramics, coatings, and porous electrically conductive electrode material.
