The effect of Sn doping concentration on the oxidation behavior of Ti3AlC2 was investigated, and it was found that excessive Sn doping impairs its oxidation resistance when the concentration exceeds 10 mol%.
Sn doping is usually adopted to prepare Ti3AlC2 in mass production because it can reduce the synthesis temperature while increasing the phase purity. However, excessive Sn doping usually deteriorates the oxidation resistance of Ti3AlC2. Therefore, an appropriate Sn doping concentration is a vital issue. In this work, the effect of Sn doping concentration on the oxidation behavior of Ti3AlC2 was systematically investigated by combining theoretical calculations and experimental methods. Density function theory calculations suggest that the oxygen adsorption mechanisms for the (001) surface of Ti3AlC2 with and without Sn doping are similar, and Ti-O bonds are always preferentially formed. The molecular dynamics simulation further indicates that Al atoms have a faster diffusion rate during the oxidation process. Therefore, a continuous Al2O3 layer can form rapidly at high temperature. Nevertheless, when the Sn doping concentration exceeds 10 mol%, the continuity of the Al2O3 layer is destroyed, thereby impairing the oxidation resistance of Ti3AlC2. Furthermore, oxidation experiments verify the above results. The oxidation mechanisms of Ti3AlC2 with different Sn doping concentrations are also proposed.
