Boron Nitride for Thermal Management Why Should You Consider BN BN for thermoset applications BN for thermoset applications Boron nitride (BN) is an excellent additive for thermoset applications as well as for thermoplastics applications. You can consider BN for use in a wide range of resins and applications: Boron nitride powders can be used in all forms to enable thermal conductivity while maintaining electrical insulation and b mechanical properties, making BN well suited for use in thermal management applications. Its hexagonal crystal structure, which is similar to carbon, is also soft and lubricious. Its properties can make it the best overall choice for thermal management. Key features and typical benefits: Thermal conductor Electrical insulator Low dielectric constant/loss High temperature stability Lubricious Inert and chemically stable Non-Wetting In addition to these benefits, boron nitride also has b properties as shown below: Table 1: Boron nitride properties compared to competitive materials Momentive Performance Materials produces various standard and custom grades of BN powders to meet a wide range of application requirements. Momentive has over 50 years of expertise in the synthesis and refinement of BN powders. Table 2: Boron nitride grades for use in thermoset applications Application gallery
