Aa. Shulzhenko et An. Sokolov, The effect of chemical composition of a crystallization medium on the cbn stoichiometry, HIGH PR RES, 18(1-6), 2000, pp. 345-351
The effect of chemical composition of the crystallization medium in synthes
is on and some properties of cubic boron nitride (cBN) has been studied. Cu
bic BN crystals with the lowest free boron content and a boron-nitrogen rat
io dose to the stoichiometric one are grown in a multicomponent crystalliza
tion medium in a Li3N-BN system. These crystals are characterized by a high
er strength and thermal stability.
