Abstract
The work with the influence of mechanochemical treatment (MCT) of minerals (quartz-SiO2, calcite-CaCO3) on the process of their combustion under the conditions of SHS with aluminium. It is shown that activation of the charge mixture in the mill increases the power state of the material and contributes to the change of kinetic characteristics of combustion process: the decrease in the induction period of ignition and the increase in combustion rate. The change in combustion temperature is of a complex character due to activation of both exothermal reactions related to formation of such compounds as anothite, helenite, wollastonite. The use of deferent organic modifiers of the charge mixture results in formation of nitride and carbide compounds in the process of SHS. It is shown that changing the conditions of MCT, modifiers and ratios between the charge components it is possible on the basis of activated and modified systems to synthesize composition SHS-materials different in their phase compositions.
