Engineering the Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Ti<sub>3</sub>AlC<sub>2</sub>, Hf<sub>3</sub>AlC<sub>2</sub>, Hf<sub>3</sub>GaC<sub>2</sub>, (ZrHf)<sub>3</sub>AlC<sub>2</sub>, and (ZrHf)<sub>4</sub>AlN<sub>3</sub> MAX Phases via the Ab Initio Method

When combined with ceramics, ternary carbides, nitrides, and borides form a class of materials known as MAX phases. These materials exhibit a multilayer hexagonal structure and are very strong, damage tolerant, and thermally stable. Further, they have a low thermal expansion and exhibit outstanding...
