Description

Product Description

Boron Nitride Disc is a precision-machined ceramic disc made from high-purity boron nitride material. It is designed for high-temperature insulation, clean separation, anti-sticking contact, and electrical isolation. With low wettability, excellent machinability, and stable performance in vacuum or inert atmosphere, BN discs are widely used in vacuum furnaces, semiconductor fixtures, molten metal handling, crystal growth, and laboratory heating systems.

Material System

This Boron Nitride Disc is produced from high-purity Boron Nitride Ceramic. HPBN, or hot-pressed boron nitride, is commonly used for machined discs, furnace spacers, insulating pads, and custom fixtures. PBN, or pyrolytic boron nitride, is more suitable for high-purity thermal processes, coating-related parts, and cleaner working environments.

Compared with many sintered ceramics, boron nitride is easier to machine into discs, thin plates, holes, grooves, slots, and special profiles. This makes it a practical choice when customers need both high-temperature performance and flexible custom machining.

Application Scenarios

  • Vacuum furnace systems: Used as insulation discs, furnace spacers, thermal separation pads, and support components in vacuum or inert atmosphere equipment.
  • Semiconductor processing: Suitable for insulating discs, clean support plates, wafer-related fixtures, and custom Semiconductor Ceramic Parts.
  • Molten metal separation: Helps reduce sticking between molten metals, glass, or process materials and the ceramic contact surface.
  • Crystal growth equipment: Used in clean thermal environments where stable insulation and low contamination are important.
  • Laboratory heating systems: Suitable for sample supports, thermal isolation pads, heating platforms, and high-temperature test fixtures.

Core Advantages

  • Low adhesion surface: Helps reduce sticking, residue buildup, and material transfer during high-temperature contact.
  • Easy custom machining: BN can be machined into holes, slots, grooves, thin sections, counterbores, and custom disc shapes.
  • Stable in vacuum and inert atmosphere: Suitable for furnace and controlled atmosphere applications.
  • Good electrical insulation: Helps isolate conductive parts in high-temperature or electronic-related applications.
  • Good thermal shock behavior: Performs well in repeated heating and cooling conditions when the proper BN grade is selected.
  • Lightweight structure: Lower density makes it easier to use in support fixtures, furnace assemblies, and moving components.
