      abstract     = {To prevent spontaneous oxidation during the
                      high-temperature synthesis of non-oxide ceramics, an inert
                      atmosphere is conventionally required1,2. This, however,
                      results in high energy demand and high production costs.
                      Here, we present a process for the synthesis and
                      consolidation of oxidation-prone materials, the ‘molten
                      salt shielded synthesis/sintering’ process (MS3), which
                      uses molten salts as a reaction medium and also to protect
                      the ceramic powders from oxidation during high-temperature
                      processing in air. Synthesis temperatures are also reduced,
                      and the final product is a highly pure, fine and loose
                      powder that does not require additional milling steps. MS3
                      has been used for the synthesis of different ternary
                      transition metal compounds (MAX phases, such as Ti3SiC23,
                      Ti2AlN4, MoAlB5), binary carbides (TiC) and for the
                      sintering of titanium. The availability of high-quality
                      powders, combined with energy and cost savings, may remove
                      one of the bottlenecks for the industrial application of
                      these materials.},
