A series of Ti3Al1−xSixC2(x⩽0.25) solid solutions were synthesized using an in situ hot pressing/solid–liquid reaction method. It was revealed that the lattice parameter c decreased dramatically but a remained almost unchanged with an increase of Si in the Ti3Al1−xSixC2solid solutions. A relationship between lattice parameter c (in nm) and Si content x, c(x)=1.8541−(8.5674×10−2)x, was established. A significant strengthening effect was observed when x was greater than 0.15 in the Ti3Al1−xSixC2solid solutions: the Vickers hardness, flexural strength and compressive strength were enhanced by 26%, 12% and 29%, respectively, for Ti3Al0.75Si0.25C2solid solution. The electrical resistivities of Ti3Al1−xSixC2solid solutions were in the range 0.35–0.37μΩm and increased slightly with an increase of Si content. The addition of Si to Ti3AlC2to form solid solutions had no deleterious effect on the oxidation resistance at 1100°C due to the formation of a continuous Al2O3layer.
