Abstract
MAX phases are a member of ternary carbide and nitride,with a layered crystal structure and a mixed nature of chemical bonds(covalent-ionic-metallic)that promote MAX phases embracing both ceramic and metal character-istics.As a result,MAX phase ceramics emerge with remark-able properties unique from other traditional ceramics.In this review,we focus on alternate processing approaches for MAX phases that are cost-effective and energy-saving.The MAX phase purity,formation of other unwanted phases,micro-structure,and properties are influenced by many parameters during processing.Therefore,we highlight the effect of nu-merous factors,which alternately diminish the efficiency and performance of materials.Here,the impact of several para-meters,such as starting materials,stoichiometric composi-tion,temperature,pressure,particle size,porosity,microstructure,mechanical alloying,mechanical activation,ion irradiation,and doping,are summarized to reveal their influence on the synthesis and properties of MAX phases.The potential applications of MAX phases are considered for their development on a commercial scale toward the industry.
