Boron nitride is a chemical compound made up of the elements boron and nitrogen. It appears in a variety of structural forms, each with its own set of features and applications. Boron nitride is also known as “white graphene” because it has a hexagonal lattice structure similar to graphene but with alternating boron and nitrogen atoms instead of carbon atoms. The hexagonal crystal lattice arrangement is the most prevalent type of boron nitride.
It is a white, slick solid with graphite-like characteristics. h-BN is an efficient thermal conductor and is frequently utilized in industrial applications as a high-temperature insulator, heat sink material, and lubricant. It is also utilized in electronics, where its electrical insulating qualities allow it to be employed as a dielectric material.
Boron nitride nanoparticles are being researched for a variety of biomedical applications, including drug transport, imaging, and cancer therapy, due to their biocompatibility and unique characteristics. Nanoscale boron nitride structures, such as nanotubes and nanosheets, are also of interest because they have the potential to be used in electrical, thermal, and mechanical applications comparable to carbon-based nanomaterials.
Boron nitride is highly prized for its superior thermal, mechanical, and electrical qualities, as well as its chemical stability. Because of its versatility and utility in a variety of industries, it is a significant material for both research and practical applications. High-temperature coatings and insulators used in aircraft and industry. Thermal interface materials (TIMs) are materials that improve heat transfer in electrical devices. Coatings that protect high-temperature furnaces and chemical reactors.
The Global boron nitride market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Saint-Gobain Ceramic Materials announces the debut of Saint-Gobain Boron Nitride Powder Solutions, a new boron nitride powder product line. Saint-Gobain Boron Nitride has been a world leader in developing, producing, and marketing boron nitride powders into a wide range of global markets, industries, and applications for many years. Saint-Gobain Boron Nitride Powder Solutions is the successor to the four previous powder product lines: COMBAT, Carbo therm, TRES BN, and Idea lube.
To clearly separate the powders, the classes are now arranged and designated according to morphology, with numbers based on particle size or purity. The commercial and technical teams at Saint-Gobain Boron Nitride will continue to assist customers in identifying the best grade for their application.
