BN99 on-shelf stock

In the realm of advanced ceramic materials, boron nitride (BN) has emerged as a highly versatile and sought-after compound, attracting significant attention in the field of sputtering target fabrication. Boasting a unique combination of exceptional thermal, electrical, and chemical properties, BN-based ceramic targets are increasingly becoming indispensable in the production of thin films and coatings for a wide range of high-tech applications.

QS Advanced Materials Inc., a leading supplier of specialty materials, offers two distinct grades of hot-pressed boron nitride sputtering targets: BN99 and TPBN (Thermal Purified Boron Nitride).

BN99 is the most commonly used boron nitride product in their inventory, known for its excellent performance characteristics and cost-effectiveness. This versatile target material is widely employed in the deposition of thin films for various applications, ranging from electronics and optics to industrial cutting tools and wear-resistant coatings.

In contrast, TPBN refers to a premium-grade boron nitride target that boasts an impressive purity level of 99.9%. This exceptionally pure form of BN is considered one of the highest-purity boron nitride materials available on the market, comparable to the renowned Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Boron Nitride (HOPBN). The exceptional purity of TPBN makes it highly desirable for applications that demand the handling of ultra-high-purity materials, such as in the fabrication of advanced electronic devices, optical components, and specialized industrial coatings.

Complementing the BN99 and TPBN offerings, QS Advanced Materials Inc. also provides a third type of boron nitride ceramic target: Cubic Boron Nitride (cBN). Unlike the more common hexagonal BN (hBN) structure, cBN exhibits a cubic crystal lattice, endowing it with exceptional hardness and thermal stability. These properties make cBN-based sputtering targets particularly valuable for the deposition of wear-resistant and high-temperature protective coatings, finding applications in cutting tools, abrasives, and other industrial components subjected to extreme conditions.

To ensure the timely and reliable supply of these specialized boron nitride ceramic targets, QS Advanced Materials Inc. maintains a vast and well-stocked inventory of both finished products and basic shapes, such as rods, plates, and blanks. This extensive availability allows the company to respond swiftly to the demands of time-sensitive projects and orders, catering to the diverse needs of its customers across various industries.
