The effect of a NiO additive on the combustion and structure formation in a Ni-Al-W system in self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) is under study. The stages of the combustion of compositions containing a NiO high-energy additive are shown. The interaction of W particles with Ni-Al melts during SHS results in the formation of globular decoration of particles on the basis of solid solutions of tungsten on the particle surface. This effect is observed only in compositions with an equimolar mixture of Ni-Al. Should the amount of 1 at. % be present in the original sample of the NiO additive, the globular decoration on the surface of unreacted W particles never occurs. This effect can be associated with changes in the combustion temperature, deviation of the NiAl phase in the direction of a larger content of Ni, and the influence of oxide phases on diffusion processes.
