Quality Control

Our Titanium Aluminum Carbide (Ti2AlC) is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high performance. Quality is verified through advanced analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD) for phase purity, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for morphology, and elemental analysis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, particle size, and other critical parameters is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be kept under an inert atmosphere such as argon or nitrogen for long-term storage to prevent oxidation and degradation. Keep away from strong acids and strong oxidizing agents.
