The SHS reaction in the Ni–Ti–B4C system starts with the formation of Ni–Ti and Ni–B intermetallic compounds from the solid interacted reaction among the reactants and, subsequently, the formation of Ni–Ti and Ni–B liquid at the eutectic point. Meanwhile, some C atoms from the reaction between Ni and B4C can dissolve into Ni–Ti liquid to form TiC. The heat generated from these reactions can promote the mutual diffusion of Ni–Ti–C and Ni–B liquid and simultaneously accelerate the formation of Ni–Ti–C–B liquid. Finally the precipitation of TiC and TiB2 occur when the C and B atoms in the liquid become supersaturated. The addition of Ni not only promotes the occurrence of the self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) reaction by forming Ni–Ti liquid, but also accelerates the SHS reaction by forming Ni–B liquid and dissociative C. The early appearance of dissociative C from the reaction between Ni and B4C causes the formation of TiC prior to that of TiB2.

Effect of Cu addition and heat treatment on the self-propagating high temperature synthesis reaction have been investigated. The results show that Cu reacts with Al to form Al2Cu phase. With the addition of Cu, the combustion temperature of the system decreases and the porosity of the products is reduced, the size of TiC particulate decreases in the SHS reaction products. Specially, when heat treatment is carried out for the sintering products at 800 ?C, the rigid framework (sintering neck) between TiC particles was formed.

Microalloying of MoSi2 to form Mo(1−x)MexSi2 (Me = Nb or V) was investigated by the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis method. With alloying element contents up to 5 at.%, a homogeneous C11b solid solution was obtained. For higher contents of alloying elements, the product contained both the C11b and the hexagonal C40 phases. The relative amount of the C40 phase increases with an increase in the content of alloying metals in the starting mixture. The alloying element content in the hexagonal C40 Mo(1−x)MexSi2 phase was nearly constant at a level of about 12 at.% for all starting compositions. In contrast, the content of the alloying elements in the tetragonal phase is considerably lower (around 4 at.%) and increases slightly as the Me content in the starting mixture is increased.
