ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method of producing dense, near net shape components of advanced materials such as intermetallics, ceramics, and their composites. The method consists of two major steps combined into one. First step includes the preparation of semi-solid or liquid materials by means of combustion synthesis or self-propagating high-temperature synthesis. The second step includes the densification and near net shape forming of such combustion products by semi-solid metalworking or die casting techniques. The combination of combustion synthesis and semi-solid metalworking or die casting techniques provides a low cost, fast production method for many articles made of high temperature materials such as intermetallics, ceramics, and their composites.
