A resin-impregnated boron nitride body comprising polymer-derived boron nitride and a resin is provided. In addition, a process for manufacturing such a resin-impregnated boron nitride body comprising the steps: n(a) polymerizing a boron nitride molecular precursor into a preceramic polymer, n(b) shaping the preceramic polymer to form an infusible polymer body, n(c) submitting the polymer body to a thermal treatment, n(d) impregnating the obtained boron nitride body with a resin, and n(e) curing of the resin nis disclosed. |
