Reaction Synthesis of Cr2AlC Ceramics Powders
Abstract:
Polycrystalline Cr2AlC was fabricated by a solid reaction synthesis of a mixture of Cr, Al and graphite powders in a flowing or the atmosphere in the temperature range of 700 to 1450 °C. The products for identification and analysis were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The effects of the composition of the initial elemental powders and temperature of purity and formation of Cr2AlC were examined. It is found that the co-existence of Cr7C3 with Cr2AlC is attributed to the surplus of carbon in the starting powders at 1350 °C, selecting the starting materials with a Cr: Al: C molar ratio of 2: (1.1-1.6): 1. For sample obtained from the starting elemental powders with the Cr: Al: C molar ratio of 2: 1.2: 0.94, no other phases but Cr2AlC were detected. In addition, the effect of temperature on the formation of Cr2AlC ceramic powders was carried out.
