Abstract

The ignition and reaction processes of the thermal explosion reaction from the Ti–B4C system in air were studied. The thermal explosion reaction for the formation of TiC and TiB2 can be initiated at a relatively low temperature with the incorporation of air. Generally, the ignition process in air is suggested to be a chemical oven rather than gas transport, and the reaction process is proposed to be dissolution and precipitation.
