Abstract

The kinetics of reaction between particles of tungsten and silicon during liquid-phase sintering of W ― Si ― Sn pseudoalloys was studied. Specimen growth caused by the formation of tungsten disilicide was observed. The growth rate in the investigated ranges of time and temperature obeyed a linear law. The rate constant was determined, and also the activation energy of the process, which agreed with the standard heat of formation of WSi2.
