Synthesis of BCN ceramics from pyrrolidine–Borane complex

Abstract

BCN ceramics were prepared from pyrrolidine–borane complex. Its complex was a new product and has not appeared on the market. The chemical compositions of the BCN ceramics were BC 1·5N 0·4 obtained at 1000°C in Ar, BC 0·9N 0·4 obtained at 1000°C in NH 3. Boron was a mixture of trigonal and tetragonal BN bonds. Electrical conductivity, of the BCN ceramics showed semiconductive properties. ©
