V2AlC is a MAX phase material exhibiting a unique combination of metallic and ceramic properties, including high electrical and thermal conductivity, mechanical strength, fracture toughness, and corrosion resistance. It is utilized in high-temperature structural applications, such as engine components operating under extreme conditions and aerospace propulsion systems. Additionally, it serves as a precursor for synthesizing 2D MXene materials, particularly V₂CT_x, via selective etching of the Al layer. These properties make it suitable for energy storage devices like lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries, as well as electrochemical capacitors, where its layered structure enables efficient ion intercalation. V2AlC is also explored for electromagnetic interference shielding through conductive networks in composite materials, and holds potential in catalysis supports and sensor technologies due to its functional surfaces and robustness. Its durability renders it ideal for electrodes and components in harsh chemical environments.
