Thus, the die breaking risk in the sintering process or the de-molding process is avoided at all. At a low temperature and short holding time, a high purity of Cr_2 AlC was obtained in this SPS process from the optimization of different molar ratios of raw materials. Simultaneously, the high porosity of the as-obtained sample was also a distinguishing feature worth noticing. The reaction mechanism for this process was also discussed in detail. This study presented a new venue for future development of high purity "MAX" materials and others related materials by a modified pressureless sintering strategy.展开更多
