Ym. Burov et al., THERMODYNAMIC STUDY OF SYNTHESIS OF TITANIUM BORIDE BY THE METHOD OF CONDENSATION COMBUSTION OF GASES, Combustion, explosion, and shock waves, 33(5), 1998, pp. 548-552
We have performed a thermodynamic calculation of the adiabatic combust
ion temperatures and equilibrium composition of products in the BCl3-T
iCl40-Na system at atmospheric pressure and temperatures of 300-3000 K
. The maximum combustion temperature is equal to 1872 K, The condition
s under which the final high-melting products Ti, TiB, TiB2, and B are
produced have been found. The results obtained enable one to choose t
he conditions for synthesis of highly disperse powders of high-melting
compounds and coatings based on them using combustion processes.
