This paper indicates that a fundamental study was conducted to investigate the Ti‐C system when it is exposed to a hybrid reaction between thermite and elemental powders of titanium and carbon under centrifugal acceleration. A pellet of Ti+C was fixed in an offset position relative to the surrounding steel tube in the reaction chamber, which was filled with thermite mixture. The aluminothermic mixture was ignited; it generated a massive amount of heat and was able to initiate a secondary reaction. The secondary Ti+C reaction was affected by the high temperature. Several byproducts were formed, including intermetallics. A microstructure and phase analysis of the synthesized product is investigated in this paper, revealing 27% formation of a new product with 796 MPa hardness. The study explains how the Ti+C behaved during a short and sudden heating environment.
