A type of boron nitride–magnesium aluminum silicate (BN‐MAS) composite ceramics was fabricated by hot‐press sintering at different sintering temperatures. The relationship between the sintering temperature and microstructure was investigated by analyzing the interaction between hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) and the MAS phase. The main MAS phase in the composite ceramics is the α‐cordierite phase at a sintering temperature of 1300°C. At temperatures above 1400°C, the inhibitory effect of h‐BN on the crystallization of the MAS system is significant, and MAS mainly exists in the form of an amorphous phase. The composite sintered at 1700°C exhibited the highest bending strength of 218MPa. h‐BN and MAS were co‐enhanced. MAS can be used as an effective liquid‐phase sintering aid to assist in the sintering of h‐BN, whereas h‐BN can absorb the fracture energy of the composite ceramics through the pull‐out and bridging effect of the particles.
