Abstract : AlN has found applications in the automobile industry, aerospace, electronic industry, high temperature
applications and other areas. Nitridation of aluminium in the forms of ingot and powder were carried out in a stainless steel
tube furnace under flowing nitrogen gas at temperatures below the melting point of aluminium (5500
– 6300
C). Magnesium
powder and hydrogen gas were separately used to reduce the oxygen pressure of the furnace. The results showed that the use
hydrogen gas successfully reduced oxygen pressure below the permissible value, which promoted nitridation process. XRD
results gave AlN peaks with highest intensities (for both Al coupon and powder) at 6300
C after 4 hours of holding time when
hydrogen gas was jointly flown with nitrogen gas into the furnace. The AlN peak intensities increased with temperature and
holding time. XRD result did not revealed AlN peaks in the Al coupons nitrided in the absence of hydrogen gas.
