Abstract
•A two-step nucleation of TiB2 occurs during controlled ball milling.•Before ignition, nucleation of off-stoichiometric TiB2-x particles occurs.•Partial crystallization of amorphous boron evolved before ignition.•After ignition, evolution of large grains of TiB2 occurs for Ti34B66.•Nano spheroidal TiB2 and platelike TiB particles occurs for Ti50B50 after ignition.
