The combustion of compressed Ni + 16% Al, Ni + 50% Al, Co + 30% S, Ti + 58%
FeB, Ti + 20% C, and FeO + 10% Fe + 18% Al mixtures in a constant magnetic
field is studied. The depth of conversion is found to increase and the geo
metric dimensions of the phase components of the reaction end products to c
oarsen under the influence of the field in the systems containing a ferroma
gnetic metal. The changes in the reaction product are related to additional
mass transport behind the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis wave
.
