Abstract
For SHS of Ti3SiC2-based materials in the Ti–Si–C system, we explored the impact of silicon excess on the composition of resultant MAX-phase material by XRD and SEM methods. After hot pressing, SHS-produced MAX-phase material was found to contain over 88 wt % of Ti3SiC2. The SHS-produced powders are sinterable and deserve further studies on their hot pressing and pressure-less reactive sintering.
