What is boron nitride?
Boron nitride is a covalent compound, atomic crystal, challenging, and comparable to diamond. Boron nitride is a crystal made up of nitrogen and boron atoms. The chemical composition is 43.6% boron and 56.4% nitrogen, with four distinct variants: hexagonal boron nitride (honyanszcn), Rhombic boron nitride (RBN), cubic boron nitride (CBN) and wurtzite boron nitride (WBN). Bn is an isoelectronic body of C2, so Bn has a similar structure and physical properties to carbon. Bn has two kinds of design, one identical to graphite hexagonal structure, and The other is a cubic structure similar to diamond. Hexagonal boron nitride is an excellent lubricant, while cubic boron nitride is an inorganic synthetic material whose hardness is second only to diamond. The boron nitride material is solid but has a lower density (2.3g/cm3) than the metal aluminum and is a lightweight, high-strength material.
Properties of boron nitride
High heat resistance. Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) will sublimate only when heated to 3000℃ in 0.1Mpa nitrogen, and its strength is twice that of room temperature at 1800℃. Therefore, it has excellent thermal shock resistance and will not break even when air cooled to room temperature at 1500℃ dozens of times—high thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity of hexagonal boron nitride products is about 34W/m·k, similar to stainless steel, high thermal conductivity—a low coefficient of expansion. The expansion coefficient of hexagonal boron nitride is (2.0~6.5) *10-6/℃, second only to quartz glass, plus its high thermal conductivity, so the thermal shock resistance is excellent.
Synthesis of boron nitride
At present, there are many ways to prepare hexagonal boron nitrides, such as the boron method, boric acid method, borate method, and boron halide method, etc.; the basic principle is that boron compounds (such as boric acid, boron, boron halide, and other borates) and nitrogen compounds (such as ammonia, urea, ammonia chloride, melamine, etc.) together heating reaction, manager treatment to obtain different purity hexagonal boron nitride. The main methods of synthesis of hexagonal boron nitride in China are borax-ammonia chloride, borax-urea, borax – melamine.
Price of boron nitride
Boron nitride particle size and purity will affect the product's Price, and the purchase volume can also affect the cost of Boron nitride. A large amount of large amount will be lower. The Price of boron nitride is on our company's official website.
