METHOD OF PRODUCING CERAMICS AND COMPOSITE MATERIALS BASED ON TiSiC Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC C04B35/58 C04B35/65 B22F3/23 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to production of high-temperature structural ceramic materials, and specifically to a method of producing a ceramic composite with a Ti₃SiC₂ based matrix. The method of producing ceramics and composite materials based on Ti₃SiC₂ from titanium, silicon and carbon in a composition of silicon carbide involves laying alternating layers in form of a multilayer pack of titanium foil and isometric dispersed silicon carbide particles and carbon in the composition of highly filled polymer films. The multilayer pack is subjected to force SHS compacting in a vacuum or in an atmosphere of inert gas under a mechanical load of 0.2 MPa or higher, which is applied in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the layers.

EFFECT: easier moulding of articles which does not require use of special press moulds, and avoiding energy-consuming procedures for post-firing preparation of reagents.
