Ti2SnC
metal· Ti2SnC
Ti2SnC is a ternary intermetallic compound belonging to the MAX phase family (metal–atom–C/N), combining titanium, tin, and carbon in a layered hexagonal crystal structure. This material is primarily studied in research and advanced manufacturing contexts rather than mature industrial production, offering a unique combination of metallic conductivity with ceramic-like stiffness and thermal stability. Engineers consider Ti2SnC for demanding applications requiring lightweight high-stiffness components with excellent thermal shock resistance, though it remains an experimental material with limited commercial availability compared to established titanium alloys or conventional MAX phases like Ti3SiC2.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
