Boron Nitride Crucible

Boron Nitride Crucible is made from high-purity boron nitride powder by an advanced vacuum hot press sintering process. It is a high-performance ceramic vessel for extreme temperatures and corrosive environments. It offers exceptional thermal stability (up to 2000 ℃), chemical resistance, and electrical insulation. Its non-wetting surface ensures easy material release and minimal contamination. Ideal for semiconductor crystal growth, metal melting, ceramic sintering, and chemical processing, Boron Nitride Crucible delivers unmatched reliability and performance. Various shapes and dimensions with tight tolerances are available for multiple applications. Advanced Ceramics Hub can also supply boron nitride products with high purity and different additives based on specific requirements.
