産業上の利用分野
本発明は立方晶窒化硼素(以下CBNという)の合成方
法に関し、特に良品のCBN t−よシ低圧、低温で得
ることのできる合成方法に関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a method for synthesizing cubic boron nitride (hereinafter referred to as CBN), and in particular to a method for synthesizing CBN of good quality at low pressure and low temperature. be.
従来の技術
従来、CBN合成に使用される原料の大方晶窒化硼素(
以下HBNという)は一般に市販品で転イ結晶が十分発

OX以上のものが使用されている。Conventional technology Conventionally, the raw material used for CBN synthesis, macrogonal boron nitride (
HBN (hereinafter referred to as HBN) is generally a commercially available product whose crystal size Lc in the C-axis direction is 100
OX or higher is used.
それは低結晶性でLc値が100OX以下のHBNは通
常B2O3等の不純物が5%程度含有されておシ、この
B2O3不純物はCBNの成長を多いに阻害し、かつ良
結晶が得られないからである。This is because HBN with low crystallinity and an Lc value of 100OX or less usually contains about 5% of impurities such as B2O3, and this B2O3 impurity greatly inhibits the growth of CBN and makes it impossible to obtain good crystals. be.
発明が解決しようとする問題点

純物を除いたものCBNの合成方法を提供し、さらには
合成の温度や圧力を従来よシ下げてもCBNの合成が可
能な方法を提供することKある。Problems to be Solved by the Invention When HBN with uniformly developed crystals is used to synthesize CBN, when pressure and heat are applied in the CBN stability region, HBN is simultaneously dissolved in the CBN synthesis catalyst and CBN growth is initiated. As a result, the crystals do not form in the form of skeleton crystals, especially in the early stages of growth, and the subsequent growth is random, resulting in the final crystals having irregularities on the surface and tight crystals with pores inside. There are cases. This provides a method for synthesizing CBN that excludes impurities such as B2O3 in low-crystalline ABN, and furthermore provides a method that can synthesize CBN even if the synthesis temperature and pressure are lower than conventional ones. There is K.

ラツキが避けられず、そのために試料空間全体を良品生
成の圧力、温度に保持することは非常に困難である。Means to Solve the Problems There is a method of controlling the growth of CBN from the beginning to the end of the synthesis by synthesizing near the equilibrium line of pressure and temperature i CBN - HBN. As a result, it is extremely difficult to maintain the entire sample space at a pressure and temperature that will produce a good product.

BNは一般的に粒子の大きさも小さく、表面積が大きい
ため触媒との接触面積が大きいため触媒との接触面積が
相対的に多くなシ溶解が早い。The present inventor has determined that the dissolution rate of HBN in the CBN synthesis catalyst is
It was found that this is due to the crystallinity of N. HBN with underdeveloped crystals (Lc value less than 100OX) is crystallographically unstable and dissolves quickly in the catalyst. Also this more than I (
BN generally has a small particle size and a large surface area, so the contact area with the catalyst is large, so the contact area with the catalyst is relatively large, so it dissolves quickly.
そこで本発明はこの結晶化度の低いHBNを結晶化度の
高いHBNに混合することにより、溶解を段階的に行な
うようにしたものである。Therefore, in the present invention, HBN with a low degree of crystallinity is mixed with HBN with a high degree of crystallinity, thereby dissolving the HBN in stages.
即ち、本発明はCBN合成触媒の存在下にHBNよj9

0に以上のHBN粉末30〜90重量%とLcが100
OX未満のHBN粉末70〜10重量%とを混合したも
のを原料として用い、熱力学的にCBNの安定域陀加熱
、加圧することを特徴とするCBNの合成方法である。That is, in the present invention, HBN and j9 are synthesized in the presence of a CBN synthesis catalyst.
When synthesizing cBNi, the crystallinity Lc by X-rays is 100
0 to 30-90% by weight of HBN powder and Lc is 100
This method of synthesizing CBN is characterized by using a mixture of 70 to 10% by weight of HBN powder of less than OX as a raw material, and heating and pressurizing the mixture to a thermodynamically stable CBN range.
Lcが100OX以上のHBNは市販されているのでそ

るので、水洗、酸洗等で以下が望ましい。HBN having an Lc of 100OX or more is commercially available and can be used as is. The particle size of the powder is 30μm
The following are desirable. This commercially available HBN is produced using B2O3 or the like as a raw material and then heat-treated at a high temperature. L
HBN having a c of less than 100OX can be obtained without the above heat treatment or by lowering the heat treatment temperature. Normally, this HBN contains a small amount of impurities such as B2O3, so it is desirable to wash with water, pickle, etc. as follows.
結晶化度の高いHBNと低いHBNの混合割合は前記し
た通シであるが、これはHBNが一度に合成触媒に溶解
することを避けるため必要である。The mixing ratio of HBN with high crystallinity and HBN with low crystallinity is the same as described above, and this is necessary in order to avoid dissolving HBN in the synthesis catalyst all at once.

i3BN2°LiBaBN2 or the like is used. The mixing ratio of these to HBN K is generally 1 to 30 parts by weight of catalyst per 100 parts by weight of HBN.
CBNの合成はこれらの混合粉末を予備成形し、超高圧
装置に装填して行なわれる。Synthesis of CBN is carried out by preforming these mixed powders and loading them into an ultra-high pressure device.

例えば1400℃〜1700℃、40kb〜50 kb
が適当である。Synthesis conditions are not limited to normal conditions; low temperature and low pressure are also possible.
For example, 1400℃~1700℃, 40kb~50kb
is appropriate.

でCBNとなって析出し、粒の成長が起、ると考えられ
る。In CBN synthesis, by mixing ft of HBN with high crystallinity with HBN with high crystallinity, HBN with low crystallinity is first dissolved in the catalyst and CBN is produced. It is thought that CBN with a high degree of crystallinity is then dissolved in the bath, becomes CBN and precipitates on the surface of the previously generated CBN, and grain growth occurs.
