Microstructure characteristics of products in Ti-Si system via combustion synthesis reaction
The products of combustion synthesis reaction in Ti-Si system with molar ratios of Ti:Si = 3:1, 5:3, 5:4, 1:1, and 1:2 were investigated. The phase composition of products and degree of completion in the reaction considerably depend on the initial stoichiometric ratios of reactants. During the SHS reaction of Ti-Si system, the degree of completion follows the order of 5Ti + 3Si > Ti + Si > Ti + 2Si > 5Ti + 4Si > 3Ti + Si. Besides, the micro-structural morphology of Ti-Si compounds, i.e., TiSi2, TiSi, Ti5Si4, and Ti5Si3 were also characterized in this study.
