Abstract
ALTHOUGH reactions of metals with nitrogen or nitrogen compounds leading to nitrides are well known1, the literature on combustion is devoid of descriptions of flames from the reaction between boron hydrides and nitrogen hydrides (ammonia, hydrazine). This communication reports a steady-state flame of diborane and hydrazine, in which the reaction products consist principally of boron nitride and hydrogen, according to the reaction B2H6 + N2H4→2BN + 5H2.
