Key Points

  • This research aims to understand how combustion wave dynamics change in a layered Ti–C–Cu system under specific conditions.
  • Analyzed combustion dynamics in a two-layer Ti–C–Cu system under self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) conditions.
  • Utilized equimolar Ti–C mixtures with varying amounts of Cu to investigate effects on combustion temperatures and wave propagation.
  • Examined the relationship between combustion wave refraction and Snell's law at layer interfaces.
  • Combustion temperatures exceeded the Cu liquidus, triggering interfacial metal migration and metallurgical welding.
  • Higher Cu content enabled controlled variations in burning velocity of the combustion wave.
  • The behavior of the combustion wave front at the layer interface aligned with principles akin to Snell’s law.

Abstract

Combustion wave dynamics were analyzed in a two-layer Ti–C–Cu system under SHS conditions. Utilizing equimolar Ti–C mixture with varying Cu amounts, the study showed that combustion temperatures surpassing the Cu liquidus drive interfacial metal migration and metallurgical welding. Variation in Cu content allowed for controlling the burning velocity, revealing that the refraction of the combustion wave front at the layer interface adheres to a relationship analogous to Snell’s law.
