What is Boron Nitride Ceramic? | Properties, Uses in Semiconductor & Metallurgy

Product Description

Boron Nitride (BN) Ceramics represent a class of advanced engineering materials manufactured from high-purity hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) powders through specialized sintering processes. With exceptional thermal stability in temperatures up to 2300°C in inert atmospheres and a theoretical maximum of 3000°C, these ceramics deliver outstanding thermal conductivity, remarkable dielectric strength, and excellent chemical inertness - making them the material of choice for demanding thermal management and high-performance insulation applications across high-tech industries.
