We have performed theoretical studies of the bulk modulus of M2AlC, where M=Ti, V, Cr by means of ab initio total energy calculations using the projector augmented wave methods. Our estimated equilibrium volume and the lattice parameters (c/a) agree well (within ±2% and ±0.06%, respectively) with experimental data. The bulk modulus of M2AlC increases as Ti is substituted with V and Cr by 19% and 36%, respectively. This can be understood since the substitution of Ti by V and Cr is associated with an extensive increase in the M–Al and M–C bond energy.
