Burning Velocities in Catalytically Assisted Self-Propagating High-Temperature Combustion Synthesis Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
The current work presents an experimental study of catalytically assisted self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) of the tantalum/carbon material system. The effects of controlled amounts of two gas-phase transport agents (carbon dioxide and vaporized iodine) were examined. The gas-phase transport agents resulted in burning velocities 2 to 4 times faster than burning velocities observed in comparable catalytically assisted and unassisted Ta/C SHS systems. The gas-phase transport agents clearly augment the combustion synthesis process. The burning velocities of the catalytically assisted, non-melting SHS systems were found to be strong functions of particle size, pressure and the amount of gas-transport agent present. The results are compared with previous studies of both catalytically assisted and unassisted Ta/C SHS, and discussed in the context of proposed transport mechanisms. © 2001 by The Combustion Institute

متن کاملSelf-propagating high-temperature synthesis for compound thermoelectrics and new criterion for combustion processing
The existing methods of synthesis of thermoelectric (TE) materials remain constrained to multi-step processes that are time and energy intensive. Here we demonstrate that essentially all compound thermoelectrics can be synthesized in a single-phase form at a minimal cost and on the timescale of seconds using a combustion process called self-propagating high-temperature synthesis. We illustrate ...
