Thermal explosion in mechanically activated Ti–C system

Resumo

Suggested was a mathematical model for a two-stage mechanochemical synthesis of TiC in a mode of thermal explosion. Preliminary mechanical activation of green Ti–C mixtures was found to markedly accelerate the process. Calculated results well agreed with the available experimental data on mechanically activated Ti–4 wt % C mixtures. Using the method of reverse problem and relevant experimental data, we evaluated some kinetic and thermophysical characteristics of mechanochemical synthesis in the Ti–С system.
