The interaction of silicon with carbon in various structural modifications under shock compression in cylindrical recovery fixtures was studied. X-ray diffraction was employed to determine the contents of phases in the shock-compressed samples. The pressure and temperature of the process were calculated. The interaction of silicon with graphite and carbon black was found to depend on the composition of the starting mixture. The interaction is most intensive at 50% Si because it depends on the contact area between the reagents, which decreases when molten silicon droplets coalesce. The interaction between silicon and diamond decreases with higher silicon content since the contact area of the components depends on their composition. The shock compression experiments for diamond–silicon mixtures show that diamond powders can be subjected to liquid-phase sintering.
