nb4alc3 is a member of the vdw max layered material system. similar to graphite and mos2, the max phases are layered and have the general formula: mn+1axn, (max) where n = 1 to 3, m is an early transition metal, a is a non-metal element and x is either carbon and/or nitrogen. in this particular case, m=nb, a=al, and x=c with n=3. world’s first electronic and optical grade commercial layered maxene phase nb4alc3 materials: nb4alc3 max phase has been synthesized at our facilities using large reactor chemical vapor deposition to yield world’s highest purity (99.999% or higher guaranteed) and layered max phases. the max phases are electrically and thermally conductive due to their metallic-like nature of bonding. they are excellent for research quality materials as 2d metals, battery applications, supermetallicity, thermal physics, or as precursors for mxene production. nb4alc3 product consists of microsized layered crystals that measure from 1 micron to 100 microns in size (see sem images below). each order contains 10 gm of high purity and layered nb4alc3 maxenes sealed under inert ar gas. the product has been perfected in the last years to reach guaranteed 4:1:3 nb:al:c ratios and exhibit extraordinary environmental stability. each crystallite can be exfoliated either using conventional tape exfoliation or alternatively liquid phase exfoliation technique.
