Abstract Ultrafine particles of aluminum tnitride (AIN) arc produced by a transferred an plasma. Two devices are used: a transferred arc plasma on aluminum natal in nitrogen or nitrogenlammonia atmospheres, and a item concept of transferred arc plasma when, DC anode and cathode ares are coupled together above an alumintun melt. Equilibrium chemical compositions mere calculated. The temperature distributions in the plasma are measured hr emission spectroscopy Flit, powder, made from 99.8%, aluminum ingot, it as analyzed and confirmed to be 99.3%, of hexagonal phase aluminum nitride. In othertests, from 99.99% aluminum ingot, a translucent AIN vinter was obtained. The densification behavior was assessed by hot pressing and by pressureless sintering, with and without additives. The thermal conductivities are given.
