Pyrolytic Boron Nitride (PBN)
Pyrolytic Boron Nitride (PBN) is an ultra-high-purity ceramic material produced through chemical vapor deposition (CVD) under high-temperature and vacuum conditions, achieving a purity of 99.999% (5N grade). Its exceptional chemical inertness and high-temperature stability make it an ideal choice for semiconductor processing, crystal growth, and high-vacuum applications. The ultra-high purity of PBN ensures minimal contamination, making it essential for MBE, MOCVD, and other advanced material fabrication processes. Additionally, its ability to maintain structural integrity in extreme environments makes it a preferred material for crucibles, evaporation sources, and precision components in demanding industries.
