Applications Of Hexagonal Boron Nitride in The Aluminum Industry

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is widely used in the aluminum industry due to its unique properties, such as high thermal conductivity, low friction coefficient, high-temperature resistance, and chemical inertness. Below are its main application areas:

1. Release Agent

Application Scenario: Used as a release agent in aluminum casting and extrusion processes to prevent aluminum from sticking to molds.

Advantages: Reduces mold wear, extends service life, and improves the surface quality of products.

2. Lubricant

Application Scenario: Acts as a high-temperature lubricant in aluminum processing (e.g., rolling, extrusion, drawing) to reduce friction and wear.

Advantages: Suitable for high-temperature environments, enhancing processing efficiency and product quality.

3. Refractory Material

Application Scenario: Used as a lining or coating in aluminum melting furnaces and holding furnaces.

Advantages: Resistant to high temperatures and chemical corrosion, extending furnace life and improving thermal efficiency.

4. Composite Reinforcement Agent

Application Scenario: Added as a reinforcement agent to aluminum-based composites to enhance their mechanical and thermal properties.

Advantages: Improves material strength, hardness, and wear resistance while maintaining good thermal conductivity.

5. Insulation Material

Application Scenario: Used as an insulation material in aluminum electrolytic cells to prevent current leakage.

Advantages: Excellent insulation and high-temperature resistance, ensuring the safety and stability of the electrolysis process.

6. Coating Material

Application Scenario: Applied as a surface coating on aluminum products to provide high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and low friction protection.

Advantages: Extends the service life of aluminum products and enhances their performance.

7. Thermal Management Material

Application Scenario: Used in aluminum-based heat sinks and thermal management systems to improve thermal conductivity.

Advantages: High thermal conductivity facilitates efficient heat dissipation, making it suitable for electronic devices and LED lighting.
