A process for producing a dense composite material by combustion synthesis. In the first step of the process, a reaction mixture comprised of an elemental material is provided. The elemental material is charged to a die, a uniaxial pressure of from about 500 to about 5,000 pounds per square inch is applied to the elemental material within the die, and the elemental material within the die is ignited. Prior to, during, and subsequent to the time said elemental material is been ignited, the uniaxial pressure of from about 500 to about 5,000 pounds per square inch is applied to the elemental material within said die.
