ABSTRACT:
A method for preparing a highly dense product from a powdered mixture of reactants, whereby simultaneous application of a high current and pressure enables synthesis and densification of a variety of high temperature materials. The combination of field-activated combustion synthesis and the application of mechanical pressure was employed to produce dense MoSi.sub.2.
