Abstract

Nitrides and carbides are prepared by intercalating a monomer, a starting material of condensate, or a prepolymer into the interlamellar spaces or the vacant spaces of the crystalline structure of a natural mineral or an inorganic compound to prepare an intercalated compound and baking the intercalated polymer compound at a temperature in the range of 1100.degree.-1700.degree. C. under a nitrogen or reducing atmosphere. The present invention provides a method for readily preparing nitrides and carbides having the increased crystallinity at a low calcination temperature. Whiskers with larger diameters of 2 to 5 .mu.m can be prepared by adding carbon powder to the intercalated compound complex.
