Structurization in the model is understood as a transition from amorphous to crystalline state. The model takes into account the heating of the reactor walls by thermal radiation from the device, the temperature of which can vary at different rates. Chemical reactions are described by a summary scheme that corresponds to the synthesis of Ni<sub>3</sub>Al composite. The kinetic law takes into account a possible strong inhibition of the rate of the reaction with the accumulation of the synthesis product, which is typical for reactions controlled by diffusion at the particle level. The effective thermophysical properties of the components of mixture and reaction products in the reactor depend on the properties of the constituents of the initial mixture and the fraction of reaction product. The properties of the latter also depend on the degree of structurization. The structurization process is described by a special additional parameter whose evolution is modeled by a reversible reaction. It is assumed that the structurization process starts from the moment of product appearance and continues during the cooling of the system. It is shown that synthesis results in the formation of a composite containing the initial components and the reaction product with the matrix partly in the amorphous state and partly in the structured state.

The main stages of structure transformation and the respective mechanisms are identified. It is found out that the grain and defect structure transformation up to e ≈ 1.1 is provided by the dislocation and dislocation-disclination mechanisms, which when combined activate the processes of submicrocrystalline structure formation. The deformation impact in the strain interval from e ≈ 1.1 to e ≈ 3 is characterized by a significant increase in the grain-boundary length. A high strength state is achieved in the course of this deformation, where the dislocation modes of plastic deformation are suppressed. This is accompanied by the activated processes of formation of two-level nanostructured states, wherein the principal mechanism is a quasi-viscous re-orientation by the flows of non-equilibrium point defects. A further increase in the deformation to e ≈ 5.3 gives rise to refinement of the submicrocrystalline grains and formation of two-level nanostructured states in the entire material volume. The main contribution to the grain- and subgrain transformations comes from the disclination and quasi-viscous modes of plastic deformation. At higher strain degrees (e > 5.3), the size of submicrocrystalline grains does not virtually change, and the transformation of two-level nanostructured states makes itself evident in the rotations of some of the fragments of this structure with respect to the other by small angles from tens of fractions of a degree to several degrees.
