There is provided a method for producing a high-purity metal nitride by simple processes with good yield. Specifically provided is a method for producing a metal nitride including heating a metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for producing a metal nitride, the method comprising: heating an alkaline earth metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas and at a temperature of from 600 to 1000° C., thereby obtaining a metal nitride; or heating an alkali metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas and at a temperature of from 600 to 800° C., thereby obtaining a metal nitride, wherein said alkaline earth metal hydride is in the form of a powder, said an alkali metal hydride is in the form of a powder, and said metal nitride is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Be 3 N 2 , Mg 3 N 2 , Ca 3 N 2 , Ca 2 N, Sr 3 N 2 , Sr 2 N, Ba 3 N 2 , and Ba 2 N, or is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Li 3 N, K 3 N, and Na 3 N. 2. The method according to claim 1 , which comprises heating an alkaline earth metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas and at a temperature of from 600 to 1000° C., thereby obtaining a metal nitride. 3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the alkaline earth metal hydride is heated at a temperature of from 700 to 900° C. 4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a reaction time is from 10 minutes to 48 hours. 5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a reaction time is from 1 hour to 24 hours. 6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a reaction time is from 3 to 12 hours. 7. The method according to claim 1 , which comprises heating an alkali metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas and at a temperature of from 600 to 800° C., thereby obtaining a metal nitride. 8. A method for producing a metal nitride, the method comprising: heating an alkaline earth metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas and at a temperature of from 600 to 1000° C., thereby obtaining a metal nitride; or heating an alkali metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas and at a temperature of from 600 to 800° C., thereby obtaining a metal nitride, wherein said alkaline earth metal hydride is in the form of a powder, said an alkali metal hydride is in the form of a powder, and said metal nitride is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Mg 3 N 2 , Ca 3 N 2 , Ca 2 N, Sr 3 N 2 , Sr 2 N, Ba 3 N 2 , and Ba 2 N, or is Li 3 N. 9. The method according to claim 8 , which comprises heating an alkaline earth metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas and at a temperature of from 600 to 1000° C., thereby obtaining a metal nitride. 10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the alkaline earth metal hydride is heated at a temperature of from 700 to 900° C. 11. The method according to claim 8 , wherein a reaction time is from 10 minutes to 48 hours. 12. The method according to claim 8 , wherein a reaction time is from 1 hour to 24 hours. 13. The method according to claim 8 , wherein a reaction time is from 3 to 12 hours. 14. The method according to claim 8 , which comprises heating an alkali metal hydride under a nitrogen gas or an ammonia gas and at a temperature of from 600 to 800° C., thereby obtaining a metal nitride.
