Boron Nitride Nanoparticles (BN, 99.9%, 800nm, Hexagonal)

Boron Nitride Nanoparticles

BN Nanoparticles is a chemical compound consisting of the same number of atoms as boron and nitrogen. BN Nanoparticles is not found in nature and is therefore synthetically produced from B, boric acid (H3BO3) or boron dioxide (B2O3). Until the early 1960s it was not possible to stabilize this material in the form of powders and hot stamped shapes. But modern process technology has made boron nitride nanoparticles a cost-effective advanced material used in various forms.BN Nanoparticles is isostructural to carbon (C) and is available in various crystalline forms. The hexagonal shape (h-BN) is a smooth white BN polymorph with a layered structure similar to graphite. The layered structure can also be stacked in a rhombohedral shape. The other common structure of the BN nanoparticles is the cubic shape (c-BN) which is similar to diamond and is the second hardest material to date. There is also a rare form of wurtzite similar to lonsdaleite.
