Ti3C2Tx MXene‐Zirconium Diboride Based Ultra‐High Temperature Ceramics
This study demonstrates the effectiveness of Ti3C2Tx MXenes as additives in ultra‐high‐temperature ceramics (ZrB₂), enhancing densification, reducing oxygen content, and improving mechanical properties. Through surfactant‐free electrostatic self‐assembly and spark plasma sintering, MXenes enabled the formation of a core–shell microstructure, resulting ...
