Abstract
A set of boron carbonitride phases have been synthesized by nitration of boron carbide BC powder at 2100-degrees-C under various partial pressures of nitrogen. X-Ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy studies establish graphite-like networks for the atomic arrangement within each of the ternary compounds formed. All B-C-N phases found are classified by a certain value of interplanar spacing, characteristic Raman band frequency and a degree of structural ordering. An increase of the synthesis temperature prevents the formation of ternary compounds in favour of graphite and hexagonal boron nitride.
