Abstract
Nanometer AlN powders were prepared by combining spray pyrolysis with carbothermal reduction and nitridation (CRN). The aluminum oxide/carbon composite powders prepared by spray pyrolysis from a sucrose spray solution were several microns in size, with hollow and porous structures. Precursor powder with 67 wt% carbon content was transformed into phase-pure AlN powder by CRN at temperatures above 1,400 °C. The hollow-structured AlN powder was ground to 20 nm mean size by simple milling.
