Boron Nitride Crucible, BN Crucible
We provide standard products & tailor-made products for hot-pressed boron nitride crucibles. Except for pure BN99 crucible, we also supply BN composites with silicon carbide, calcium borate, aluminum nitride, and zirconia, to fulfill various demands of the customers. Check the boron nitride specifications for our pure BN99 and zirconia composite material ZSBN.
Our BN99 crucibles had been recorded to survive 3500C in inert gas. Please notice BN survives high temperatures in a vacuum, as it decomposes after 1900C. Edgetech supplies custom-made boron nitride crucibles and other machined products with a $200 MOQ. A typical boron nitride crucible set has a crucible body and a staged boron nitride lid (a lid with holes on it to balance pressure is available). Other forms could be customized with drawings.

Boron Nitride Crucible Advantages & Applications
Boron Nitride ceramic from Boron Carbide Parts China Ceramics Division can withstand high temperatures in the high vacuum environment, plus it has excellent corrosion resistance and electrical resistance.
-Low wettability to molten metal
-Relatively high thermal conductivity with low thermal expansion
-Relatively high thermal shock resistance
-Extremely high working temperature with proper inert gas protection (>3000C has been recorded).
Based on the above properties, Boron Nitride Ceramic Crucible is an ideal choice in a wide range of industries, such as:
-Crucibles for crystal growth
-Break rings for horizontal casting machine
-Insulators for high-temperature furnace
-Electric insulators in vacuum system
-Feed through for high voltage equipment
Packing
As a ceramic material, boron nitride is quite fragile in a lot of cases. Our Hot-Pressed Boron Nitride Crucible is carefully handled to minimize damage during storage and transportation. Suitable outer boxes and inner cushioning materials are used for BN products, vacuum packing is also engaged for some of the parts.
