nitrideAny of a class of chemical compounds in which nitrogen is combined with an element of similar or lower electronegativity, such as boron, silicon, and most metals. Some examples of nitrides include boron nitride, calcium nitride, aluminum nitride, and cyanogen. Although some nitrides are unstable, others, especially nitrides of silicon, titanium, and tantalum, are very refractory and hard and thus are useful as abrasives and in making crucibles. |

| SDK) has developed a new process for making high-quality compound semiconductors based on gallium nitride (GaN) and other nitrides to meet growing demand mainly for use in blue/white LEDs. In the absence of a satisfactory, ready-made mold coating, older research was consulted to determine that boron nitride might be a suitable material. Key statement: The reinforcing inorganic filler includes a silicon nitride having (a) a BET specific surface area of between 20 and 200 [m. |
