Abstract: The disclosure is directed to compositions and methods for forming boron nitride coatings, using polymers derived from tri-substituted borazine and chloroborazine compounds. The polymeric compounds are mixed with ammonia, pyrolized at high temperatures to obtain a high temperature melt, and further converted to boron nitride coatings on various substrates. The polymeric compounds can be stored prior to pyrolysis.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to polymeric B-aminoborazene compounds suitable for pyrolytic conversion to boron nitride. The B-aminoborazine compounds are preferably mixed with an organic solvent and a cross-linking agent to form a polymeric gel. The polymeric gel is then pyrolized to form boron nitride. The polymeric gel is useful to coat various forms and materials.
