Manufacturing of Covalent Ceramics by Exothermic Reactions
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 February 2011
Abstract
Manufacturing of high temperature materials is an energy expensive process, and conventional techniques require long periods of homogenization to ensure uniform chemical composition in large batches of material. Several covalent ceramics, and high temperature materials can be manufactured by utilizing the exothermicity of the reactants. Some of the salient features of combustion synthesis, approaches to densify the combustion synthesized product, and other processes that utilize exothermic reactions for the synthesis of materials have been discussed.
