Combustion synthesis is a relatively new technique in material’s manufacturing. Based on energy efficient exothermic reactions, it offers the potential of becoming a cost effective production method. In most applications the synthesis reaction is coupled with a densification procedure since combusted samples frequently contain large amounts of porosity. Research to date takes advantage of the inherently porous nature of the boron-carbide alumina system. Porosity and material properties are maximized by examining the nature of reaction parameters which affect porosity and its distribution in the reacted material. Combustion synthesis has proven to be a cost effective method with clear advantages over conventional ceramic processing. These advantages are low energy input requirements, high speed reaction rates, volatile impurity removal during processing, and metastable product synthesis.
