Description :

Overview of Boron Nitride

Boron Nitride is a chemically and thermally stable crystalline substance made up of equal portions of nitrogen and boron. It comes in many varieties of polymorphism, including hexagonal boron Nitride, which is most commonly used. It is often known as "white graphite" due to its properties for lubrication and its layered structure. It's a transparent, tasteless, and non-toxic material that has been praised due to its superior electrical insulation, thermal conductivity, chemical inertness, and high thermal stability. Boron Nitride is used extensively in metallurgy, electronics, cosmetics, and also as a fluid lubricant for high-temperature environments. Apart from Boron Nitride, ChemicalBull also supplies antioxidants like Butylated Hydroxytoluene, which are widely used in cosmetics and industrial applications to prevent oxidation."

Applications of Boron Nitride

Electronics and Semiconductors:

• Used as an electrical insulator with high thermal conductivity, ideal for heat dissipation in power electronics.

• Serves as a dielectric layer in transistors and other semiconductor devices.

• Hexagonal BN films are used in 2D materials research.
  

Lubricants and High-Temperature Coatings:

• Functions as a solid lubricant for high-temperature environments where graphite fails.

• Applied in mold release agents for metal and glass processing.

• Used in non-stick coatings and crucibles for molten metals.
  

Cosmetics and Personal Care Products:

• Enhances the silky texture and spreadability in powders, foundations, and skin-care products.

• Provides oil absorption and light-diffusing properties for a matte finish.
  

Advanced Ceramics and Composites:

• Incorporated in high-performance ceramic parts, insulators, and thermal barriers.

• Used in boron nitride nanotubes for next-gen nanomaterials and composite materials.
  
  

Safety and Handling Guidelines

• Place it in a sealed container that is kept in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location.

• Guard against the effects of moisture and oxidizing agents.

• Boron Nitride is not flammable and is stable even at high temperatures.

• Use conventional extinguishing media if surrounding materials catch fire.

• Ensure adequate ventilation when handling powders or during machining operations to prevent respiratory issues.
