Self-propagating high-temperature synthesis of transition metal silicides

  • Published:
Soviet Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Transition metal silicides were synthesized under self-propagation conditions and their combustion temperatures were measured.

  2. 2.

    It is shown that the synthesis of these silicides can be controlled by varying certain process parameters.

  3. 3.

    Single-phase MoSi2, Ti5Si3, ZrSi2, TiSi2, NbSi2, TaSi2, and Mo3Si suicide specimens were produced having characteristics closely matching those reported in the literature.
