In the past decade, MXenes have undergone rapid development in their synthesis,
delamination and application. Specifically, the continuous optimization of the delamination …

The study aims to understand the irradiation behavior of multilayer coatings composed of
high-entropy materials. Here, we report the structural stability and elemental segregation of …

M n+ 1 AX n phases exhibit unique laminated atomic structures that result in properties
typical of both ceramics and metals. Due to their unusual characteristics, these materials …

Laser cladding was investigated as a method for the in-situ synthesis of Ti-Al-C MAX phase
coatings due to its speed compared with standard powder metallurgy methods, localized …

Protective coatings of fuel claddings inevitably suffer from irradiation damage under actual
nuclear operating condition. Here, effect of ion irradiation on the high-temperature oxidation …

High-purity ternary layered carbide V 2 AlC powders have been prepared by a two-step
modified molten salt method, ie by firstly synthesizing V 2 C with V and C powders at 900° C …

Abstract Core-shell ZrC/Ti 2 AlC reinforced intermetallic composite coatings were
successfully prepared by laser cladding in-situ reaction using TiAl–TiC–Al powder preset on …

MAX phase-reinforced composite coatings were successfully prepared by laser cladding in-
situ reaction using TiAl–TiC–Al powder preset on R60702 zirconium alloy surface. The …

This study investigates the effects of applied tensile and compressive stresses on the
evolution of defects in He-irradiated silicon carbide (SiC) materials. By combining …

Thin foils of the double solid solution (Zr 0.5, Ti 0.5) 2 (Al 0.5, Sn 0.5) C MAX phase were in
