Abstract
The infiltration of porous carbon by NiSi alloys is studied using the sessile drop technique in high vacuum. The role of the NiSi-carbon reaction in infiltration is determined and discussed. The experimental infiltration results are used to determine which process—viscous flow or the reaction at the infiltration front—limits the infiltration rate.
