Disclosed is a process for producing spheroidized boron nitride which enable the further improvement in the heat conductivity of a heat-radiating member. Specifically disclosed is a process for producing spheroidized boron nitride, which is characterized by using spheroidized graphite as a raw material and reacting the spheroidized graphite with a boron oxide and nitrogen at a high temperature ranging from 1600 to 2100 DEG C to produce the spheroidized boron nitride. The boron oxide to be used in the reaction is preferably boron oxide (B2O3), boric acid (H3BO3), or a substance capable of generating a boron oxide at a higher temperature. A gas to be used in the reaction is preferably nitrogen or ammonia.
