Abstract (EN): This literature review aims to summarize the research conducted on the production of locally reinforced ferrous castings based on metal matrix composites reinforced with TiC (TiC-MMCs). One way to improve the wear resistance of cast components is to reinforce critical regions locally with metal matrix composites (MMCs) without changing the toughness of the component core. The in situ method of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis is one of the main approaches for the production of this enhanced material. Using this approach, the reinforcement is formed from a powder compact inserted in the mold cavity. The temperature of the liquid metal then produces the combustion reactions of the powders, which promote the formation of the ceramic phase. This paper focuses on eight powder systems used to synthesize TiC: Ti-C, Ni-Ti-C, Ni-Ti-B4C, Fe-Ti-C/Fe-Cr-Ti-C, Cu-Ti-B4C, Al-Ti-C, and Al-Ti-B4C, and provides an overview of the methodologies used as well as the effect of processing variables on the microstructural and mechanical characteristics of the reinforcement zones.
