Popis: In this work, a ternary system prepared by Ni-Al-Ti mixed powder was synthesized using self-propagation high-temperature synthesis (SHS) process. The weight of the reactant was varied using 3%, 10%, 20% and 30% of the Ti content. The mixtures were compressed in a steel die to form compacted pellets, and subsequently ignited using an external heat source to initiate the combustion process. The synthesized products were characterized using SEM, EDS, and XRD, whereas the mechanical property of the product was measured using a Vickers microhardness test. The identification of the formed phase indicates that Ni-Al, Ti-Al and Ti-Ni systems were formed during the reaction. An increase of Ti content from 3% to 10% improves the density of the synthesized product. Further increase of Ti content to 20% results in the generation of cracks. The addition of Ti with 30% leads to the formation of a porous product. The heat released by the SHS process due to the formation of several intermetallic phases was responsible for the formation of defect products. The highest hardness of the product was achieved in the product prepared by 20% Ti content. However, the higher Ti content than 20% results in hardness reduction. This work shows that the content of 10% of Ti produced a dense and hard product.
