Abstract
This article describes some recent research on the synthesis of functi onally-graded materials (FGM) using combustion synthesis or self-propa gating high-temperature synthesis (SHS). A model ceramic-metal SHS sys tem was investigated based on the reaction system: 3TiO2 + 3B2O3 + (10 + x)Al = 3TiB2 + 5Al2O3 + xAl in which x was varied between 0 and 17 to achieve the required composition and phase gradients in the FGM. Th e effects of combustion mode, reactant stoichiometry (xAl), green dens ity, and applied loads on the stability of the SHS reaction and densit y of the FGM product are described.
