Filed:

Nov 3, 2005
Appl. No.:

11/266157
Inventors:

Laurence Maniccia - Lyndhurst OH, US
Chandrashekar Raman - North Royalton OH, US
Anand Murugaiah - North Olmsted OH, US
Assignee:

Momentive Performance Materials Inc. - Wilton CT
International Classification:

C01B 21/064
US Classification:

423290
Abstract:

A process for producing boron nitride of high purity and high thermal conductivity, wherein a oxygen-containing boron compound is reacted with a nitrogen-containing source in the presence of a dopant at a temperature of at least 1000 C. for at least one hour, and wherein the dopant forms metal borate impurities with a vaporizing temperature that is lower than the highest processing temperature in the process.
