Grade ZSBN Combat® BN Solids

High wear resistance plus high thermal conductivity

Developed for demanding applications requiring the combination of thermal conductivity, high wear resistance and boron nitrides corrosion resistance, Combat® Grade ZSBN boron nitride is a composite material combining the best thermal performance and machinability characteristics of hot-pressed boron nitride with the strength and non-reactivity of silicon carbide and zirconia.

 

Grade ZSBN is a uniquely high-performing solid that is especially suited for molten metal applications such as continuous casting breakrings where wear resistance and thermal conductivity are essential.

 

Applications

  • Break rings
  • High temperature valve
  • Components
  • Jigs
  • Continuous casting
  • Molds
  • Crucibles
  • Molten material casting, metal and glass process
  • Deck plates
  • Muffles
  • Heat treat fixtures
  • Nozzles for transfer or atomization
  • High temp. bearings
  • Side dams
  • High temperature mechanical components
  • Spacers

 

Available as Finished Parts or Machinable Blanks

Saint-Gobain Advamced Ceramics, Boron Nitride products, can provide custom machining of Combat Solid Boron Nitride for complex shapes based on customer specifications. Solid bars, rods and plates are also available for customers who desire to fabricate their own custom shapes using conventional machine shop tools.

Product Features

Key Properties

 Chemically Unparalleled resistance to molten metal wetting due to boron nitride content.

Thermally Excellent high temperature operation and thermal shock resistance.

Mechanically Excellent wear resistance and increased strength from zirconia and a small amount of silicon carbide. This feature, unique to ZSBN, results in remarkable corrosion resistance over a wide range of temperatures.

Machinability Combat Grade ZSBN is easily machined, even to complex shapes and forms, quickly and inexpensively. Machining tolerances of 0.002” or better are achievable.
