The goal of the present work is the synthesis of the refractory zirconium diboride powder in the combustion mode. One of the most effective methods of synthesis of the refractory zirconium diboride powder is the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis method (SHS) with a preliminary mechanical activation of the initial components. Initial components of the SH-synthesis are borate ore, zircon, aluminum powder and magnesium. After the SH-synthesis obtained products were processed by 37.5% HCl and were washed with distilled water. Final composition and microstructure of SHS products were investigated with X-ray phase analysis and SEM. Boron-containing SHS-powders can be used as bio-protection in nuclear engineering, production of abrasive powders, ceramic, composite materials and coatings.
