PURPOSE: To obtain ultra-fine pulverized titanium nitride capable of massive production by using an inexpensive raw material at relatively low temp. by which problems in furnace materials are reduced.

CONSTITUTION: A material formed by drying a mixture of titanium hydroxide obtained from the aq. solution of titanium chloride and an org. compd. which is water soluble and easily carbonized or a mixture of titanium suboxide and an org. compd. easily carbonized or a carbon black is heated at 1250-1460SoC in the atmosphere of gaseous N2. Since it reacts in a solid state, the reduction in cost caused by the miniaturization of a device and the relatively lower reaction temp. is attained to obtain an ultra-fine pulverized titanium nitride.
