Process For Manufacturing Boron Nitride Fiber Batts Using A Spinner

View page
US Patent:
43092039, Jan 5, 1982
Filed:
Mar 28, 1980
Appl. No.:
6/134905
Inventors:
John L. Tworek - West Seneca NY
Gordon R. Rignel - Lockport NY
Assignee:
Kennecott Corporation - Stamford CT
International Classification:
C03B 3704
US Classification:
65 41
Abstract:
A process is disclosed for producing non-woven, yet internally cohesive, boron nitride fiber batts, suitable for use as an electric cell separator in a lithium-sulfide battery. Molten boron oxide is centrifugally spun into strands and attenuated by an annular gas stream into fibers at a controlled relative humidity. The fibers are funnelled into a chamber and subjected to a turbulent air flow, which causes random orientation and intertwining of the fibers, resulting in multiple mechanical bonds thereamong. The compacted boron oxide fiber bundle thus produced is heated in an anhydrous ammonia atmosphere to convert boron oxide in the fibers into boron nitride (BN).
