本研究使用片狀鋁粉及球形鋁粉進行氮化鋁燃燒合成之量產製程開發，針對片狀鋁粉本實驗室先前開發之5 kg級量產技術進行改進探討，並將其產物進行後續研磨處理，比較不同部位產物(如黃粉與白粉)研磨難易之差異。針對球形鋁粉則探討先前本實驗遭遇之量產問題提出解決問題之方案，而能達到5 kg級量產之開發。本研究並比較兩種鋁粉進行燃燒合成反應及氮化鋁產物的差異。由實驗結果可知，將片狀鋁粉中之氫氧化鋁添加比例增高，可有效解決產物中夾雜(因鋁熔聚生成之)黑粉的問題，並提升產物之轉化率及產率。以產物最高比例之黃粉與白粉而言，黃粉轉化率最高可達99.99 %，白粉轉化率最高可達98.94 %。將其產物以小型研磨機進行研磨，經過研磨1小時可以得到粒徑D50 = 14.9 µm的黃粉及粒徑D50 = 9.4 µm的白粉，經SEM觀測，黃粉多為結晶面明顯的單一顆粒，而白粉多為小顆粒聚集而成之團聚體。在使用球形鋁粉合成氮化鋁之實驗中發現，球形鋁粉量產問題的關鍵在於引燃劑的選擇及反應快速且足夠的熱量供應，因此藉由片狀鋁粉反應速率快、放熱量高的特性作為頂部引燃用鋁粉，解決了球形鋁粉難以引燃及反應容易中斷的問題，成功建立5 kg量產的技術，轉化率黃粉可達99.66 %，白粉則達99.83 %。

The research of this thesis includes two aluminum sources. Flake aluminum powder and spherical aluminum powder were used to develop the mass production process of aluminum nitride combustion synthesis. For flake aluminum powder, the production of 5 kg aluminum nitride process and the conversion of aluminum nitride was optimized. The product was subjected to subsequent grinding treatment and compared the difference part (e.g. yellow and white) of aluminum nitride powder. For spherical aluminum powder, the reasons for previous production failure are discussed. The scale-up problem is solved and achieve 5kg mass production development. The difference between the combustion synthesis reaction of two kinds of aluminum powder and the difference of aluminum nitride products will be compared. According to experimental results, increasing the proportion of aluminum hydroxide in the flake aluminum powder can effectively solve the problem of black powder mixed with yellow powder in the product. Reduced aluminum powder coalesence can increase the yield and conversion of the product. The conversion of yellow product can reach 99.99 % and the conversion of white product can reach 98.94 %. After grinding 1 hour, yellow powder with particle size of D50 = 14.9 µm and white powder with particle size of D50 = 9.4 µm can be obtained. By SEM observation, the yellow powder is mostly a single particle with obvious crystal surface, while the white powder mostly agglomerates of small particles. In the experiment of spherical aluminum powder, it was found that the key to solve the problem of mass production lies in the selection of the ignition agent and the fast and sufficient heat supply. Therefore, the characteristics of the rapid reaction rate and high heat release of the flake aluminum powder are used as ignition agent to solve the problems of spherical aluminum powder that is difficult to ignite and the reaction is easily interrupted. The aluminum nitride synthesis successfully reach 5 kg mass production using spherical aluminum powder. The product of yellow powder conversion can reach 99.66 % and the white powder conversion can reach 99.83 %.
