Boron Nitride Foam

Product Information

Boron nitride foam is a kind of low density permeable material with wide application. The main feature of these foams is very high porosity, usually 75-95% of the volume consists of voids. Ceramic foams are commonly used for thermal insulation, sound insulation, adsorption of environmental contaminants, filtration of molten metal alloys, and as substrates for catalysts requiring large internal surface areas. Boron nitride foams are usually immediately available in most volumes. More technical, research and Safety (MSDS) information is available.

ATT is a professional supplier of boron nitride foam, and we also manufacture boards, balls, ingots, balls, flakes, powders, rods, wires, sputtering targets, and many other forms and custom shapes. Other shapes are available upon request.

Boron Nitride Foam Properties (Theoretical)

Applications of Boron Nitride Foam

Amorphous boron is used as a rocket fuel igniter and in pyrotechnic flares. It gives the flares a distinctive green colour. The most important compounds of boron are boric (or boracic) acid, borax (sodium borate) and boric oxide. These can be found in eye drops, mild antiseptics, washing powders and tile glazes.

Packing of Boron Nitride Foam

Standard Packing:

Typical bulk packaging includes palletized plastic 5 gallon/25 kg. pails, fiber and steel drums to 1 ton super sacks in full container (FCL) or truck load (T/L) quantities. Research and sample quantities and hygroscopic, oxidizing or other air sensitive materials may be packaged under argon or vacuum. Solutions are packaged in polypropylene, plastic or glass jars up to palletized 440 gallon liquid totes Special package is available on request.

ATTs’Boron Nitride Foam is carefully handled to minimize damage during storage and transportation and to preserve the quality of our products in their original condition.
