Aluminum nitride powders

Abstract

Aluminum nitride crystal particles, aluminum nitride powders containing the same, production processes for both of them, an organic polymer composition comprising the aluminum nitride crystal particles and a sintered body. Each of the aluminum nitride crystal particles has a flat octahedral shape in a direction where hexagonal faces are opposed to each other, which is composed of two opposed hexagonal faces and 6 rectangular faces, in which the average distance “D” between two opposed corners of each of the hexagonal faces is 3 to 110 μm, the length “L” of the short side of each of the rectangular faces is 2 to 45 μm, and L/D is 0.05 to 0.8; each of the hexagonal faces and each of the rectangular faces cross each other to form a curve without forming a single ridge; and the true destiny is 3.20 to 3.26 g/cm3.
