Abstract
A ternary aluminum borocarbide, Al3BC was prepared for the first time by se lf-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) induced by mechanical activ ation of Al/B/C powder mixtures in air. The effect of mixing molar ratio of Al/B/C and grinding time on the formation of Al3BC was investigated On the of her hand, Al3BC was also formed by mechanical activation and subsequent annealing of Al/B/C = 3/1/1 powder mixture. The lattice constants of Al3BC obtained in two methods were compared. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Limited. All rights reserved.
