Abstract

PURPOSE:To uniformly obtain at low cost the titled sintered form of little deformation with high thermal conductivity, by heating an AlN form in a non-oxidative atmosphere followed by calcination. CONSTITUTION:Each sheet of an AlN form consisting mainly of high-purity fine powdered AlN, containing, as the sintering aid, group IIa or IIIa element compound is placed on a board followed by heating in a non-oxidative atmosphere at 1,400-1,650 deg.C to eliminate oxygen and carbon. Thence, the resulting form sheets are cumulated, through ceramic powder, in several tiers followed by calcination in a non-oxidative atmosphere under a load of <=20kg/cm<2> at 1,650-2,200 deg.C to effect greater denseness, thus obtaining the objective sintered form.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] When producing a thin plate sintered body of aluminum nitride, pressureless sintering is usually performed in a nitrogen atmosphere, but unevenness during forming and nonuniformity during sintering occur. This causes warping and waviness,
The sintered body is being straightened. (For example, see Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 158881/1981.) However, this method has a problem in terms of cost.

That is, in the present invention, sintering is performed in two stages, and the first stage sintering is performed by heating an aluminum nitride molded body obtained by a known method on a bed plate at 1400 to 1650 °C in a non-oxidizing atmosphere. , performs the deoxidation and decarbonization necessary to obtain high thermal conductivity. If pressure is applied during this first stage sintering, deoxidation and decarbonization will be insufficient, so heat treatment is performed one by one while being placed on a bed plate. Further, in the second stage, sintering is performed in a non-oxidizing atmosphere at 1650 to 2200°C under a load of 20 kg/cm' or less. In this case, it is possible to sandwich ceramic powder such as boron nitride powder between the first stage sintered bodies, stack them in several layers, and apply a load to the top stage for sintering. The load is 20
However, the purpose can be sufficiently achieved with a value of about g/cm' or less. This makes it possible to prevent deformation during sintering (the above-mentioned warpage and waviness) and to correct deformation of the first stage sintered body.
