Open Ceramics: Processing and oxidation response of Cr2AlCMAX phase composites containing ceramic fibers
1. Article overview
The MAX phase is a relatively new material family with more than 150 different compositions. It has received considerable attention due to its combination of metal and ceramic properties. With Cr2AlC as the matrix and carbon, silicon carbide and alumina short fibers as the secondary phases, three different ceramic matrix composite fibers (CMCs) were produced. Cr2AlC powder is synthesized by solid-state reaction, then mixed with fiber, and fully densified by on-site auxiliary sintering technology. The alumina fiber has good oxidation resistance, no obvious defects or degradation, and good adhesion of the alumina layer.

3. Full text summary
The most important result of this research is the oxidation reaction of Al2O3-10 in a realistic oxidizing environment. The protective, well-adhered alumina layer and C fiber formed at 1200°C for 500 cycles survived this test without any damage or visible particle growth. A Cr7C3 layer is formed under the aluminum oxide layer. In general, the results of this experiment are very promising for the further development of ceramic fiber max phase materials.
