Pyrolytic Boron Nitride

Its purity, superior mechanical strength, and thermal stability make it a superb choice for high temperature furnace and electrical components. Our high temperature Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) process yields intrinsically pure PBN.

The expertise of our materials and applications engineers allows us to best utilise the properties of this highly anisotropic material. Our Pyrolytic Boron Nitride provides high thermal conductivity, is resistant to thermal shock and can be used as an electrical insulator. Pyrolytic Boron Nitride also offers stability and inertness in oxidising atmospheres limited at 850°C and reducing atmospheres up to 2800°C. These properties make Pyrolytic Boron Nitride suitable for a wide variety of applications particularly in the processing of semiconductor wafers and materials.

We combine the knowledge and expertise of our engineers, a proven developmental process and the capability to manufacture end products and components. As such we are ideally placed to deliver Pyrolytic Boron Nitride solutions that not only provide excellent operational effectiveness, but can also be manufactured in accordance with strict budgets and timescales.
