| Abstract: | Titanium aluminides can be produced via an alumino-calciothermic reduction of TiO₂ in presence of KClO₄. This reaction, named KRH process, has been studied in this paper. The results show that after heating of starting materials with rate of 20°C/min, a self-sustaining reaction is ignited at about 550C which led to the rapid increasing of system temperature to 1950°C during a short time of 192 s with a mean internal heating rate of around 437°C/min. |
