Experimental and DFT investigation of (Cr,Ti)3AlC2 MAX phases stability

Using a synergistic combination of experimental and computational methods, we shed light on the unusual solubility of (Cr,Ti)3AlC2 MAX phase, showing that it may accommodate Cr only at very low concentrations (<2 at%) or at the exact Cr/(Cr + Ti) ratio of 2/3, even when the ratio of reactants is...
