Advances in Science and Technology of Mn+1AXn Phases. This item is unavailable.Advances in Science and Technology of Mn+1AXn Phases

Advances in Science and Technology of Mn+1AXn Phases presents a comprehensive review of synthesis, microstructures, properties, ab-initio calculations and applications of Mn+1AXn phases and targets the continuing research of advanced materials and ceramics. An overview of the current status, future directions, challenges and opportunities of Mn+1AXn phases that exhibit some of the best attributes of metals and ceramics is included. Students of materials science and engineering at postgraduate level will value this book as a reference source at an international level for both teaching and research in materials science and engineering. In addition to students the principal audiences of this book are ceramic researchers, materials scientists and engineers, materials physicists and chemists. The book is also an invaluable reference for the professional materials and ceramics societies.

• The most up-to-date and comprehensive research data on MAX phases is presented
• Written by highly knowledgeable and well-respected researchers in the field
• Discusses new and unusual properties
