Production Method of MAX Special Ceramics Material Vanadium Aluminum Carbide V4AlC3 Powder

Solid – state Reaction Method

1. Powder Mixing
   • Similar to the solid-state reaction method, accurately mix the vanadium, aluminum, and carbon powders in the correct ratio.
2. Initiation of Reaction
   • Use an external energy source, such as an electric spark or a laser, to ignite the mixed powder at one end. Once the reaction starts, the large amount of heat released by the exothermic reaction between the powders allows the reaction to self – propagate rapidly through the powder mixture. In a short time (usually within seconds), the reactants are converted into V₄AlC₃.
3. Post-treatment
   • After the SHS reaction, the product may need post-heat treatment at a lower temperature to improve its crystallinity and phase purity.

Hot Pressing Method

1. Powder Loading
   • Put the well-mixed vanadium, aluminum, and carbon powders into a graphite mold.
2. Hot Pressing Process
   • Place the mold in a hot-pressing furnace. Apply a certain pressure (e.g., 20 – 50 MPa) while heating the powder to a high temperature (around 1400 – 1500 °C). The combination of pressure and temperature promotes the powders’ densification and reaction, resulting in the formation of V₄AlC₃ with relatively high density.
