Now China has become a powerful country in science and technology, but do you know how powerful China's technology is? The manned space station alone is not enough, and now it has successfully broken through the key technology of nuclear fusion, even leading the world by 15 years. Does this mean that China is not far from the artificial sun? It turned out that the fully superconducting tokamak nuclear fusion experimental device developed by China at the Hefei Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences successfully achieved a record of 101 seconds of continuous operation at 120 million degrees Celsius, and broke the world record. Compared with the previous record in South Korea, China has time has been directly extended by 5 times, and it seems that we are one step closer to the practical stage of artificial sun.
The success of nuclear fusion technology will lead to the development of Ti2AlC powder.

What is Max phase material?
The MAX phase is a layered hexagonal carbide and nitride with a general formula: M_n+1AX_n, (MAX) where n = 1 to 3, and M is an early transition metal, An is an element of group A (mainly IIIA and IVA, or groups 13 and 14), and X is carbon and / or nitrogen. The hierarchical structure consists of XM 6 octahedrons with shared edges and twisted edges, and is interlaced by a single plane layer of group An elements.
 
How are Max phases made?
Ternary MAX phase compounds and composites have been synthesized by different methods, including combustion synthesis, chemical vapor deposition, physical vapor deposition at different temperatures and fluxes, arc melting, hot isostatic pressing, self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS), reactive sintering, spark plasma sintering, mechanical alloying and molten salt reaction.
 
What advantages does Max phase material have?
Max phase materials have unusual combinations of chemical, physical, electrical and mechanical properties, and exhibit metal and ceramic properties under various conditions. These include high electrical and thermal conductivity, thermal shock resistance, damage tolerance, mechanical processability, high elastic stiffness and low coefficient of thermal expansion. Some MAX phases are also resistant to chemical erosion (such as Ti3SiC2) and high temperature oxidation in air (Ti2AlC, Cr2AlC and Ti3AlC2). They can be used in technologies involving efficient engines, damage-resistant thermal systems, improving fatigue resistance and maintaining rigidity at high temperatures. These properties may be related to the electronic structure and chemical bonding in the MAX phase. It can be described as a periodic change in the regions of high and low electron density. This allows the design of other nano-laminates based on electronic structural similarity, such as Mo2BC and PdFe3N.
 
Electric equipment.
MAX phase has electrical and thermal conductivity because of its metal-like properties. Most MAX phases are better electrical and thermal conductors than Ti. This is also related to the electronic structure.
 
Physics.
Although MAX phases are hard, they can be machined as easily as some metals. They can all be processed manually with hacksaws, although some of them are three times as hard as titanium and have the same density as titanium. Because of their excellent electrical conductivity, they can also be polished into a metallic luster. They are not susceptible to thermal shock and are very resistant to damage. Some, such as Ti2AlC and Cr2AlC, are antioxidant and corrosion resistant. The thermoelectric potential of polycrystalline Ti3SiC2 is zero, which is related to its anisotropic electronic structure.
 
Mechanical.
As a grade of MAX communication, it is usually hard, light and plastic at high temperatures. Because of the layered atomic structure of these compounds, some, such as Ti3SiC2 and Ti2AlC, also have creep and fatigue resistance and maintain their strength at high temperatures. They exhibit unique deformations characterized by basal slip (recently reported evidence of MAX phase deformed at high temperature and cross slip of a dislocation and dislocation out of the basal plane of Frank's partial c dislocations caused by diffusion of copper matrix), combination of kink and shear band deformation, and delamination of individual grains. In the process of mechanical testing, it is found that the polycrystalline Ti3SiC2 cylinder can be repeatedly compressed at room temperature, with a maximum stress of 1 GPa, and fully recover after removing the load, while dissipating 25% of the energy. It is through the characterization of these unique mechanical properties of MAX phase that kink nonlinear solids are found. The microscopic mechanism responsible for these properties is the initial kink band (IKB). However, direct evidence of these IKB is not yet available, thus opening the door to other mechanisms that are less eager to assume. In fact, a recent study shows that the reversible hysteresis loop of cyclic MAX polycrystal can be explained by the complex response of very anisotropic layered microstructure.
 
What is Max phase used for?
Tough, machinable, thermal shock resistant refractories.
High temperature heating element.
Electrical contact coating.
Neutron radiation resistant components for nuclear applications.
Precursors of Carbide derived carbon Synthesis.
The precursor of MXenes synthesis, MXenes is a kind of two-dimensional transition metal carbide, nitride and carbonitride.

On August 1, the European Union officially began to implement the "voluntary reduction" agreement on natural gas adopted last month. Under the agreement, EU member states will reduce gas demand by 15 per cent from the average consumption over the past five years through measures of their choice between August 1 this year and March 31 next year.

Several major German cities, such as Berlin, Hanover and Munich, have begun to take measures to reduce energy consumption. Berlin, for example, decided to turn off the lights of more than 200 tourist attractions at night. Berlin's municipal buildings will have indoor temperatures of no more than 20 degrees Celsius between October 1 and March 31 next year, and only nurseries, schools, nursing homes and hospitals can be exempted from energy-saving measures.

Spain's energy conservation plan forces companies, businesses and vehicles to limit air-conditioning temperatures in summer and heating temperatures in winter. The above-mentioned places must limit the air-conditioning temperature to more than 27 degrees Celsius in summer and the heating temperature below 19 degrees Celsius in winter. The plan requires that shop window lighting be turned off at 22:00. The plan also requires the administration to regularly review the heating systems of enterprises in order to avoid energy waste.
