Exploratory Development on Formation of High Strength, High Modulus Boron Nitride Continuous Filament Yarns.
Abstract
A process to produce the high strength, high modulus continuous boron nitride multifilament was developed. The process consists of three fundamental steps: fiber drawing, nitriding and hot stretching. The important process parameters in each step were studied and optimized. The highest average tensile strength and modulus observed thus far are 171 thousand psi and 40 million psi respectively. A complete line of fiber characterization techniques were established and the correlation between fiber structure and properties was also made. (Author, modified-PL)
