  Solid Boron Nitride - Grade A  

Boron nitride components engineered by Precision Ceramics USA are ideal for high temperature runner systems in hot metal casting

 
 

An excellent choice for all but the most severe refractory applications, Solid Boron Nitride Grade A is a high performance material possessing a glassy B2O3 binder that creates a hard and dense yet fully machinable product.

 

Applications 

  • High temperature electrical insulators and vacuum furnace supports which require electrical resistivity, high temperature strength, thermal shock resistance and low chemical reactivity

  • Crucibles and containers for high purity molten metals

  • Insulators and source fixtures for ion implantation systems which require high temperature purity and electrical insulation

  • Radar components and antenna windows which require exacting electrical and thermal properties

  • Setterplates for the processing of other advanced materials which require stable, inert surfaces

  • Nozzles for powdered metal spraying
