Industrial applications
Find the right starting point for evaluating hBN in your formulation.
Lubricants
hBN can be evaluated as a solid additive in industrial oils, greases or dry lubrication systems. Define the contact materials, loading and operating conditions before selecting a test.
What to evaluate
- Dispersion in the carrier
- Friction and wear under service conditions
- Stability during storage or use
Industrial additives
Formulators can evaluate hBN as a ceramic filler in polymers, resins or composites. The finished formulation depends on the matrix and how the particles are distributed.
What to evaluate
- Mixing and processability
- Thermal or electrical targets in the finished part
- Changes in viscosity and mechanical properties
Coatings
Coating developers can evaluate hBN as a component of a powder or liquid coating formulation. Define the substrate and binder alongside the properties expected of the finished coating.
What to evaluate
- Dispersion and application method
- Adhesion to the target surface
- Performance under the intended process conditions
Release agents
hBN can be evaluated in industrial release formulations for processes in which material separates from a tool, mould or support surface.
What to evaluate
- Tool and part material
- Release behaviour over repeated cycles
- Residue and surface finish after release
