In the Mg-Si system, Mg2Si forms in an equilibrium exothermic reaction. However, during this reaction, the system is heating up, may overheat within a short time, and may run out of control. We will report on a powder metallurgy-based processing route where mechanical alloying, pressing, and heat treatments are used to produce Mg2Si in a Mg matrix with different Si contents in a controlled manner. XRD is used to identify phases that form during processing.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-50240-8_32} (DOI).
