The MAX phases: Unique new carbide and nitride materials
American scientist, v 89(4), pp 334-343
01 Jul 2001
Abstract
MAX phases are materials that are stiff, lightweight, machinable, made from relatively inexpensive raw materials, resistant to oxidation and thermal shock, and capable of remaining strong up to temperatures in excess of 1,300 degrees Celsius in air. They constitute an exciting new class of materials that is more revolutionary than evolutionary.
