T3SiC2 bulks have been synthesized by infiltrating Si liquid into porous precursor pellets composed of solid Ti and C powders. Silicon pellets were placed at the bottom of the precursor pellets as the liquid source. The starting compositions can be represented by the formula 3Ti + 2C + xSi, where x = 1.0, 1.2, 1.4 and 1.6, respectively. The phase formation and microstructure of the bulks were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results demonstrated that the Ti/C precursor pellet could only react with Si completely when the x value is 1.6. Large, a purity of above 95wt% Ti3SiC2 bulk of up to 50 mm in diameter was obtained by this method.
