Abstract
The properties of AlN made by carbothermal reaction depend on the starting materials, quantity of liquid, the liquid-vapor phase reaction, the N$_2$ flow rate, and the reaction temperature. AlN whisker was synthesized by the VLS and VS methods. Solid ${\alpha}$-A1$_2$O$_3$(AES-11) was carbothermally reduced with carbon black in a high-purity N$_2$ atmosphere with AlF$_3$ to cause whisker grown and additional aluminum liquid to increase whisker yield. Aluminum nitride was perfectly formed at reaction temperatures of 1600$^{\circ}C$. At reaction temperature higher than 1600$^{\circ}C$ the aluminum nitride was completely formed, while the composition remains unaffected. Needle-shaped whiskers formed best at 1600$^{\circ}C$ while higher temperatures disrupted whisker formation. Adding 0 to 15 wt% aluminum to the synthesis favorably affects the microstructure for formation of needle-shaped AlN whisker. Additions over 15 wt% degraded formation of AlN whisker.
