2. Description of the Related Art Hexagonal boron nitride powder has a layered structure similar to graphite, and has excellent properties such as thermal conductivity, insulation, chemical stability, solid lubricity, and thermal shock resistance. It is applied to solid lubrication and mold release agents, fillers, and raw materials for the production of heat-resistant and insulating sintered compacts. When hexagonal boron nitride powder is used as the filler, the particle size distribution is usually adjusted by mixing the coarse particle component and the fine particle component in order to improve the filling property.

However, for example, when a resin is cured at a temperature of 100 ° C. or more, a resin using a hexagonal boron nitride powder whose particle size distribution has been adjusted as a filler is a fine particle component of the hexagonal boron nitride powder. There is a problem that foaming occurs and the strength is reduced due to evaporation of moisture contained in the water. Also,
When the hexagonal boron nitride powder whose particle size distribution is adjusted is blended with a resin using a curing catalyst, the moisture contained in the fine particle component of the hexagonal boron nitride powder reacts with the curing catalyst and the curing does not proceed. There was a problem. If hexagonal boron nitride powder mainly composed of coarse particles is used as the filler, these problems do not occur, but there is a problem that the filling property is impaired.

The firing (crystallization) in the present invention is performed in an atmosphere of a non-oxidizing gas containing substantially no hydrogen atoms. In an oxidizing gas atmosphere, the amorphous hexagonal boron nitride powder or the generated hexagonal boron nitride powder is oxidized. In the case of gas containing hydrogen atoms in molecules such as hydrogen gas and ammonia gas, the hydrogen atoms react with the oxygen atoms incorporated as impurities in the amorphous hexagonal boron nitride powder during firing to generate water vapor. Therefore, it is not suitable for the present invention. Specific examples of the non-oxidizing gas substantially containing no hydrogen atom include helium and argon. In the present invention, a readily available and inexpensive dehydrated nitrogen gas is most suitable.

The reason why the hexagonal boron nitride powder produced by the method of the present invention has a BET specific surface area of 15.0 m 2 / g or more and a water content of 0.15% by weight or less is as follows.
It is considered as follows. That is, a hexagonal boron nitride powder having a large specific surface area is usually a mixture of a nitrogen source material and a boron source material, or a substance having a nitrogen source and a boron source in a molecule at 1400 ° C. to 1800 ° C. Manufactured by reaction and crystallization. In this case, a substance having an amino group in the molecule or ammonia is used as a nitrogen source. However, if a substance having a hydrogen atom in the molecule is used as a raw material, steam is used as a by-product gas of the reaction during firing. Are generated, and a hexagonal boron nitride powder having a high water content is obtained. On the other hand, according to the production method of the present invention, a mixture of amorphous boron nitride powder and a crystallization catalyst is used
Since crystallization is performed in a low temperature range of 0 ° C. to 1650 ° C., only by-product crystallization of boron nitride proceeds slowly without generating by-product gases such as water vapor during firing. For this reason, a hexagonal boron nitride powder having a small water content is obtained despite the large specific surface area.
