Main recent contributions to SHS from France

Both in situ TRXRD and IR thermography, on the one hand, and different levels of modeling, on the other, have generated a strong progress in the knowledge and control of numerous SHS reactions. The SHS of simple binary materials, such as intermetallics (FeAl, MoSi2, NbAl3, etc.), oxides (e.g. ZrO2),...

Description
Summary:Both in situ TRXRD and IR thermography, on the one hand, and different levels of modeling, on the other, have generated a strong progress in the knowledge and control of numerous SHS reactions. The SHS of simple binary materials, such as intermetallics (FeAl, MoSi2, NbAl3, etc.), oxides (e.g. ZrO2), carbides (e.g. SiC) or nitrides, more complex materials, such as mullite, SiAlONs, MAX phases, composites (SiO2-Al2O3, NiAl-ZrO2 ), powders in their more complicated states, such as well controlled microstructures, fully densified intermetallics, smart composites, and hard coatings carried out by GFA researchers greatly contributed to the worldwide competition to harness the potential of SHS. On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of SHS, this paper is giving an overview of the main results obtained by GFA over the last ten years.
