We specialize in harnessing the properties of hexagonal Boron Nitride to find tailored solutions to application-specific challenges in lubrication, insulation, refractory, thermal management and more.
Boron Nitride Powders
Hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN), an advanced synthetic ceramic combines a number of useful thermal, electrical, physical and chemical properties in one unique material. FRSG's more than 30 years of expertise in harnessing these properties and transforming hexagonal BN into sophisticated solutions to application- specific challenges is unsurpassed in the industry.
Boron Nitride powders, also referred to as white graphite are non-abrasive, white powders with a hexagonal platy crystal structure similar to graphite, but with a much higher oxidation resistance at 800oC. Boron Nitride powders have high thermal conductivity, low coefficient of friction, high dielectric constant and are chemically inert.
Due to this range of unique properties Boron Nitride powders find use in a broad range of applications ranging from electronics, aerospace, oil and gas, ceramic manufacturing and cosmetics.
Thermal Management Boron Nitride Powders
BN Cooling Fillers.CarboTherm Boron Nitride Thermal Fillers
Boron Nitride powders offer the unique combination of high thermal conductivity and dielectric strength in one material. Today's smaller, hotter, and faster electronic assemblies require greater heat dissipation than ever before. Polymers filled with Boron Nitride Powders solve these problems in a wide variety of applications .
When used as a cooling filler in a variety of resin systems, Boron Nitride Powders is unmatched where application requires good heat dissipation, low dielectric loss, and low thermal expansion.
Thermal conductivity of single crystal CarboTherm is> 300 W / mK. Thermal conductivity of about 95% dense polycrystalline granules is> 125 W / mK. Overall thermal conductivity of Boron Nitride Powders filled resin matrix in a given application and processing parameters will depend on the inherent thermal conductivity of the resin, filler packing density, particle-to-particle interfacial contact, as well as material composition.

Boron Nitride Lubricant Additives
Boron Nitride Lubricant Additives are hexagonal boron nitride powders (BN) with lamellar structures similar to graphite. In addition, Idealube BN lubricant additives are electrically insulating, are unmatched in thermal conductivity, have low coefficients of friction and oxidation resistance at high temperatures (up to 900 ° C), and are naturally white. Compared to other solid lubricants, only Idealube has this unique combination of properties, making them the perfect solution for the most challenging applications.
In applications involving moving parts, heat dissipation and wear resistance can mean success or failure of a design. BN lubricant additives offer the solutions in most extreme operating conditions other solid lubricants such as graphite, MoS2 or PTFE fail. With the growing demand for lubricants with improved heat dissipation, better wear rates and oxidation resistance, Idealube Boron Nitride is the solution that leads to less frequency of lubrication, lower lubricant usage and less downtime.
additives are used in a wide range of applications such as food processing equipment, high-temperature greases and oils, anti-seize compounds, dielectric greases, release agent for gaskets and seals and many more.
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) Cosmetic Powders
Achieving the perfect balance in how the final product affects our senses lasts, flows through a process and costs, is the formulators challenge. Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) powders are not only soft, but work in synergy with many other materials to achieve this balance . Whether it's the shimmer of an eye shadow, the coverage in a foundation, or higher yield in your extrusion process, Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) powders offer formulators many solutions wrapped into one material.
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is a synthesis of Borax (natural mineral) and a Nitrogen source at high temperature resulting in a lamellar structure that resembles graphite, except pure HBN is white. Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) cosmetic powders are Ultra-High Purity (UHP) versions of this lamellar form with each layer or cleavage face containing boron and nitrogen. There is no BN bonding between layers and, therefore, planes slide over one another, creating a soft and lubricating effect.
A Beautiful Alternative
Each Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) grade has unique properties that are associated with crystal size, morphology and surface characteristics. From sub-micron crystals to 50 micron platelets, each grade within this range has a different appearance from matte to shiny, but all are soft, smooth and adherent. Furthermore, Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is a dielectric ceramic powder that remains on the skin's surface, offering a transparent and photo-stable layer of protection for skin care actives.
