Abstract:This work developed and experimentally tested a new scheme for fabricating family of MAX‐metal composites. This scheme combined the combustion synthesis process to obtain a porous MAX phase skeleton and process of metal melt infiltration spontaneously, which was then used to fabricate Ti3SiC2‐TiC‐Sn and Ti3SiC2‐TiC‐(Sn‐Pb) composites. The resultant composite samples had an uneven density along the length, which steadily decreased from the point of contact of the sample with the molten tin to the opposite edge.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
