Abstract

This paper discusses the of application of combustion synthesis of ceramic and ceramic-metal composites. Several model exothermic combustion synthesis reactions are being used to investigate the effect of reaction parameters, eg. stoichiometry, green density, combustion environment and mode, particle size, physical properties of reactants and products, on the stability and control of the synthesis reaction, product morphology and properties and performance.
