Hexagonal Boron Nitride Market Trends, Top Manufactures, Market Dynamics, Industry Growth Analysis & Forecast

Synopsis of Hexagonal Boron Nitride Market:

Boron Nitride is a non-oxide ceramic with high thermal conductivity. There are four main types of boron nitride available in the market based on their crystal structures namely hexagonal BN (h-BN), cubic BN (c- BN), wurtzitic BN (w-BN) and rhombohedral BN (w-BN). Among the aforementioned structures of boron nitride, cubic and Hexagonal Boron Nitride are most commonly used ones, owing to their superior properties. Hexagonal Boron structure is similar to graphite, due to which it is also known by its alias name; white graphite. Some of the key properties of hexagonal boron nitride include high thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion, thermal shock resistance, high electrical resistance, non-toxicity, easily machinability, lubricity, chemical inertness, and non-wetting by most molten metals among others. The demand for Hexagonal Boron Nitride Market is primarily driven by the superior properties possessed by Hexagonal Boron Nitride. Unlike cubic boron nitride, the Hexagonal Boron Nitride has low density and high thermal conductivity. Various form of Hexagonal Boron Nitride include powders, dispersion of powder in liquid, and hot pressed shapes such as rods, tubes, gaskets, and crucibles among others. Owing to its superior properties of thermal stability, lubricity, and good dielectric properties it is widely used across an array of industries where in the latter properties are mandatory. For instance, Hexagonal Boron Nitride is used as an additive in lubricants due to its excellent lubrication properties.

As per analysis, some of the market impetus factors and trends identified in the Global Hexagonal Boron Nitride Market includes the increasing demand for Hexagonal Boron Nitride from high temperature paints & coating application followed by increasing demand in electronics & electrical sector. One of the emerging applications of Hexagonal Boron Nitride in the global market is identified as the increasing demand from the personal care sector as an ingredient for various skincare products as well as other products such as make-ups, blushers, and foundation among others. Collectively, the increasing demand for Hexagonal Boron Nitride from the aforementioned industries and the subsequent growth of these industries will pulsate the overall demand for Hexagonal Boron Nitride. Noted trends in the global market include process and product development. As the major restraining factor of the market is identified as the high cost of Hexagonal Boron Nitride.
