The infiltration sequence of graphite fibers with liquid aluminum alloyed with titanium was studied. The titanium concentration was chosen such that a severe reaction occurred between the fibers and the melt. Aluminum carbide and titanium carbide, as well as an aluminide phase were formed. The phenomenon occurring during the infiltration sequence was explained with the aid of the ternary-phase diagram Al-Ti-C. The effect of the reaction on the infiltration height is discussed.
