Abstract
This introductory paper briefly presents the main characteristics of t he combustion process known as self-propagating high temperature synth esis, and summarizes the different papers which illustrate it in this thematic issue. Three topics are more especially addressed: the mechan ism of product formation, the advantageous features of the process to fabricate non-oxide powders which require sintering aids, and its pote ntial to fabricate dense materials under pressure.
