The effect of ilmenite with different reduction degrees on the production of ferrotitanium, using a self-propagation high-temperature synthesis method with aluminum as the reducing agent, was investigated. Increasing the degree of reduction not only contributed to lower consumption of aluminum, but also lowered the oxygen content and improved the grades of titanium and iron in the ferrotitanium. The aluminum content of the ferrotitanium increased with an increase in the extent of reduction of ilmenite, so the Al2O3 content formed in the slag decreased with the constant addition of CaO and CaF2 to the Al powder. This decreased relatively the content of high-melting-point CaAl12O19 and increased the contents of low-melting-point CaAl2O4 and CaF2 in the slag, thereby promoting the separation of ferrotitanium and slag. Improving the reduction degree of ilmenite is beneficial to the preparation of ferrotitanium.

Copper and copper alloy’s manual self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) technology was introduced in this paper. Through research of weld and analysis of manual SHS welding process, mechanism of copper and copper alloy’s manual SHS welding is expounded. This type of weld rod was only operated in terms of some welding technology, including welding method, weld technique parameter, weld operate. The chemical compositions of the weld rod was the key to the final weld quality. The powders include thermit, slagging elements and alloying addition. When the content of (CuO+Al) was 60%wt~80% in the thermit, the rod showed excellent combustion behavior and the test plates H62 were welded successfully.The slag system of CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 have the lower melting point and high deformation power, which fit to meet the need of the weld slag system of copper and copper alloy’s manual SHS welding. The high melting point Al2O3 can be digested and absorbed in two ways, generating CuO·Al2O3 ceramics and reducing the melting point to float upward into slag with the help of the solvent.

Copper and copper alloy are more difficult to weld than steel in terms of many reasons. As a new technolsgy, copper and copper alloy’s manual self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) technology was introduced in this paper.

This type of weld was only researched in terms of some aspects, including welding method, weld technique parameter, weld operate technique.

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.

AbstractDirect formation of ultra-small nanoparticles on carbon supports by rapid high temperature synthesis method offers new opportunities for scalable nanomanufacturing and the synthesis of stable multi-elemental nanoparticles. However, the underlying mechanisms affecting the dispersion and stability of nanoparticles on the supports during high temperature processing remain enigmatic. In this work, we report the observation of metallic nanoparticles formation and stabilization on carbon supports through in situ Joule heating method. We find that the formation of metallic nanoparticles is associated with the simultaneous phase transition of amorphous carbon to a highly defective turbostratic graphite (T-graphite). Molecular dynamic (MD) simulations suggest that the defective T-graphite provide numerous nucleation sites for the nanoparticles to form. Furthermore, the nanoparticles partially intercalate and take root on edge planes, leading to high binding energy on support. This interaction between nanoparticles and T-graphite substrate strengthens the anchoring and provides excellent thermal stability to the nanoparticles. These findings provide mechanistic understanding of rapid high temperature synthesis of metal nanoparticles on carbon supports and the origin of their stability.

The paper presents microstructure, composition, and burning rate of Al alloy produced by high-temperature synthesis (SHS) from powder mixture Al-Ti-B4C with different concentration of Al powder. It has been established that the phase composition of materials obtained at gas-free combustion includes TiB2, Al, and TiC. It is shown that Al content growth powder in initial Al-Ti- B4C mixture from 7.5 to 40 wt.% reduces the burning rate of the powder from 9*10-3 to 1.8*10-3 m/s. For the system consisting of 60 wt.% of (Ti + B4C) and 40 wt.% of Al there is the increase in the porosity of the compacted initial powder mixture from 30 to 51 and reduction in the burning rate from 1.8 * 10-3 to 1 * 10-3 m/s. The introduction of 0.2 wt.% of the obtained SHS materials into the melt of pure aluminum causes reduction of the grain size of the resulting alloy from 1200 to 410 μm.
