High-performance Boron Nitride Ceramics from China - Leading Suppliers & Factory for Sintered Plates & Crucibles
High Temperature Stability
h-BN can withstand temperatures of up to 2000°C in an inert atmosphere and remains stable in an oxidizing environment up to 900°C.
c-BN does not convert to h-BN below 1400°C.
Thermal Property
h-BN has better thermal conductivity than aluminum oxide (parallel to c-axis: 400 W/m·K, perpendicular to c-axis: 30 W/m·K).
It exhibits a low coefficient of thermal expansion (h-BN: parallel to c-axis -2.7×10⁻⁶/°C, perpendicular to c-axis 38×10⁻⁶/°C).
Mechanical Property
h-BN has a low hardness (Mohs hardness ~2) and excellent machinability; c-BN has a hardness second only to diamonds.
h-BN exhibits excellent thermal shock resistance due to its low elastic modulus.
Electrical Property
h-BN is a high-quality insulator (resistivity > 10¹⁴ Ω·cm, dielectric constant ~ 4).
c-BN is a wide-bandgap semiconductor (bandgap width ~ 6.4 eV).
Chemical Inertness
Resistant to corrosion by molten metals (such as aluminum and copper), and does not react with acids/bases (except for concentrated sulfuric acid and molten alkali).
