Abstract
A method of forming a MAX Phase composite can include forming a precursor powder into a discrete shape to thereby form a green body; heating the green body at a pre-sintering temperature to partially reduce the oxide present in the green body to thereby form a pre-sintered preform; and performing reactive infiltration by heating the pre-sintered preform in the presence of an infiltrating material comprising an A-group element to an infiltration temperature suitable for transforming the infiltrating material to a molten state, wherein the molten infiltrating material reacts with the pre-sintered preform to thereby form the MAX Phase composite.
