EFFECT OF Al CONTENT ON THE COMBUSTION SYNTHESIS OF (TiB2-Al2O3)/Al PRODUCTS FROM AN Al-TiO2-B2O3 SYSTEM
Abstract
The effect of Al content on the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) reaction among Al, TiO2 and B2O3 was experimentally investigated. The Al content plays an important role in controlling the reaction behaviors. With the increase in reactant Al, the maximum combustion temperature decreases, the propagating wave velocity first increases and then decreases, while the ignition delay time shows an opposite tendency. More importantly, the increase of the Al content in the reactants has an insignificant effect on the phase constitutions of the synthesized products but reduces the size of the synthesized TiB2 particles.
