Combustion of Si–C Mixtures in Nitrogen Gas: Impact of Iron-Containing Additives

Аннотация

The effect of iron-containing catalysts–FeCl₃ · 6H₂O, Fe₂(C₂O₄)₃ · 5H₂O, and Fe(NO₃)₃ · 9H₂O–on phase composition, morphology, and particle size of products formed upon combustion of Si–C mixtures in nitrogen gas. Composition and granulometry of combustion products were found to depend on a type and amount of the above additives to green composition. The results may turn interesting for researchers active in the synthesis of refractory silicon compounds.
