Abstract
Aluminium nitride (AlN) powder was prepared by the solid-gas reaction of al uminium sulfide (Al2S3) with ammonia. The process of conversion of Al2S3 to AlN was investigated by XRD and Al-27 magic-angle spinning NMR spectroscop y. The formation of ALN commenced at ca. 550 degrees C, which is the lowest temperature in the ALN formation through the solid-gas and Liquid-gas reac tions. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
