Method for producing pure monocarbides, mononitrides and carbonitrides

Pure monocarbides, or pure mononitrides or carbonitrides of metals are prepared by first forming a mixture of carbon with an oxalate of the metals and thermally decomposing the metal oxalate in the presence of the carbon by a stream of hydrogen. The hydrogen is removed and monocarbides are then form...

Zusammenfassung:Pure monocarbides, or pure mononitrides or carbonitrides of metals are prepared by first forming a mixture of carbon with an oxalate of the metals and thermally decomposing the metal oxalate in the presence of the carbon by a stream of hydrogen. The hydrogen is removed and monocarbides are then formed by heating the decomposition products in vacuo to carbothermally reduce them. Mononitrides and carbonitrides can be formed by replacing the hydrogen with nitrogen and heating the decomposition products in the nitrogen.
