GE Advanced Ceramics NX10 Boron Nitride (BN) Powder

Subcategory: Nitride; Additive/Filler for Polymer

Material Notes:
GE Advanced Ceramics has recently launched an innovative new NX line of boron nitride (BN) powders - grades NX1, NX5, NX9, and NX10. This line of products offers an economical way to achieve many of the benefits of BN in a wide range of applications. The NX line makes BN accessible to users of alternate materials, such as aluminum nitride, alumina, and fused silica, who may have previously ruled out BN.

NX grades are all fine hexagonal crystalline powders (95%-100% -325 mesh), and are available in a range of purities and surface areas to suit your specific applications.

NX10 has a mean particle size of approximately 10 microns and is a higher purity grade than NX9.

Applications: GE Advanced Ceramics NX grades are candidates for use in a wide range of demanding applications for which BN is generally considered, including:

• Lubricants and release agents for high-temperature metal & glass processing
• Refractory coatings
• Base material for hot pressed solids and metal-matrix or ceramic-metal composites
• Processing and final-product enhancement of plastics, including nucleation of solid and foamed products.
• Thermal management materials (adhesives, gap-fillers, encapsulants, polymer matrices, etc.) for electronics applications
