Abstract
In this paper, we focus on some historical aspects, as well as on recent achievements in the field of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) of ceramics. While giving the tributes to the pioneers of the SHS, we overview the wide variety of recently established SHS-based routes for fabrication of advanced ceramics, including nanopowders and nanostructured bulk materials. Both, the conventional heterogeneous SHS and solution combustion synthesis (SCS) approaches are considered. Advantages and challenges for using of the self-sustained reactions for fabrication of ceramics are also discussed.
