Product Introduction
Aluminum Titanium Carbon is an advanced ternary layered MAX-phase ceramic material that combines the best properties of metals and ceramics, making it an ideal choice for high-demand industrial applications. Unlike traditional single-attribute materials, it delivers excellent electrical and thermal conductivity comparable to common metals, while also offering high modulus, high-temperature resistance, and oxidation resistance typical of high-performance ceramics. Designed to solve common pain points of extreme working conditions, this material eliminates the trade-off between toughness and heat resistance that plagues many conventional engineering materials. It can be easily machined, drilled, and polished like standard metals, while maintaining structural stability at Temperatures can go really high up to 1400℃ in the air around us. Aluminum Titanium Carbon is an useful material. It can be used to make things to protect things or to make materials. When we use Aluminum Titanium Carbon it works well for a time. This means that people who use it do not have to stop and fix things often. Aluminum Titanium Carbon also helps to save money on maintenance costs, for people who use it. Aluminum Titanium Carbon is a choice because it is reliable and lasts a long time.

Product Advantages
- Dual performance for multi-scenario adaptation: Eliminates the need to choose between metal workability and ceramic heat resistance. It can be processed into complex custom shapes with standard machining equipment, while maintaining stable performance under high temperature, corrosion, and wear conditions that would cause common metals and ceramics to fail.
- Self-healing and self-lubricating for extended service life: At temperatures above 600℃, aluminum atoms in the material selectively oxidize to form a dense Al₂O₃ film that automatically repairs surface micro-cracks, preventing further damage. Its low friction coefficient (0.15-0.3) in dry friction environments reduces wear on both the component itself and mating parts, extending service life by 3-5 times compared to traditional wear-resistant materials.
- Lightweight and extreme condition resistance: Its density is 40-50% lower than nickel-based superalloys, making it ideal for weight-sensitive aerospace and automotive applications. It also offers excellent thermal shock resistance, acid and alkali corrosion resistance, and resistance to molten metal erosion, suitable for the most demanding industrial operating environments.
- Versatile functional potential: As a precursor material for Ti₃C₂Tₓ and Ti₂CTₓ MXene two-dimensional materials, it can be easily etched to produce high-quality MXene for energy storage, electromagnetic shielding, conductive film, and sensor applications, supporting both structural and functional use cases for customers.
Customization & Procurement Guide
Customization Scope: We support customization of material phase (Ti₃AlC₂ or Ti₂AlC), purity level, particle size (200 mesh, 400 mesh, 1-10μm, submicron), product form (powder, block, target, coating), and coating thickness based on your specific application requirements.
Procurement Notes: The minimum order quantity for standard products is 1kg; custom specifications have a minimum order quantity determined based on production complexity. All products are tested for purity and performance before shipment to ensure compliance with agreed specifications. Custom orders have a standard lead time of 7-15 working days depending on complexity.
Application Scenarios

FAQ
1. What is the recommended storage method for Aluminum Titanium Carbon products?
Store in a dry, cool, sealed environment away from moisture. The powder form has a shelf life of 12 months in original sealed packaging, and bulk components have a shelf life of 24 months when stored properly.
2. Can you provide small-batch samples for R&D testing?
Yes, we provide small sample quantities starting from 100g for R&D and testing purposes, with sample delivery time of 3-5 working days.
3. What is the main difference between Ti₃AlC₂ and Ti₂AlC phases?
Ti₂AlC has 3% lower density, better high-temperature oxidation resistance (stable up to 1400℃ in air), and is more suitable for MXene production; Ti₃AlC₂ has higher strength and is more suitable for high-load structural components.
4. Are your products compliant with international import regulations?
Yes, all products comply with ISO9001 quality standards, EU CE, RoHS, and food contact safety requirements, and we provide full supporting certification documents for customs clearance.
