SHS in preliminary structured compacts: II. Ti-2B and Ti-Al blends

Stepwise densification of Ti-2B and Ti-Al blends was used to prepare green compacts with an ordered structure. The latter ones were then used to explore combustion synthesis in these mixtures with special emphasis on the possibility of inheriting a structure of green compact by a combustion product. It has been demonstrated that, at some certain conditions, an ordered structure of green compact can be inherited by a combustion-synthesized product.
