Despite the existence of four other titanium silicides (TiSi₂, TiSi, Ti₅Si₄, Ti₃Si) evidence of these or other intermediate phases was not found in either the pre-heating or reaction stages of the process. The reaction is, however, narrowly preceded by the α→β transformation in Ti, which initiates interdiffusion and acts as a trigger for SHS ignition. The formation of Ti₅Si₃ appears to occur by the direct solid state reaction of β-Ti and Si.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:20:26 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:3435 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:20:25 AEDT ]]>
