Abstract A new mechanism of MoSi₂ formation during self-propagating high-temperature synthesis(SHS) was proposed based on the observation of the reaction front quenched into liquid nitrogen and copper block. The effects of processing variables such as Mo particle size, preheating temperature, and diluent content on the size of MoSi₂ powders formed were discussed based on the mechanism proposed in this study.
