A premium water-based Boron Nitride (h-BN) coating containing 30% active BN dispersed in a tough, high-performance alumina binder system. This smooth, white, ready-to-use coating provides excellent non-wetting properties, outstanding high-temperature stability, and superior dry lubricity on metal, ceramic, graphite, and refractory surfaces. Its advanced formulation ensures uniform film formation, excellent adhesion, and long-lasting protection in extreme thermal environments.
GPBN-WB is specially used for foundry release coatings, casting and forging operations, aluminum die-casting, molten metal handling, induction furnace components, glass-mold release, sintering trays, crucibles, high-temperature jigs and tooling, and all applications requiring clean release, reduced sticking, oxidation resistance, and thermal shock protection. With its water-based, eco-friendly system, this coating is ideal for industries requiring safer, high-performance refractory coatings, metal-processing consumables, and thermal management surfaces.

Boosts heat dissipation in epoxies, silicones, and potting compounds while preserving dielectric strength for LEDs, EV power modules, and RF devices.
Provides clean, non-carbonizing lubrication up to ~900 °C in air (higher in inert atmospheres), reducing friction in bearings, slides, and sintering fixtures.
Forms a chemically inert barrier that resists wetting by aluminum, magnesium, and glass, enabling easy release of casts, billets, and glassware.
Creates thermally stable, low-friction surfaces on dies and molds to minimize soldering/pick-up, improve surface finish, and extend tool life.
In TIM pads, greases, and gels, platelets align to create heat-spreading pathways without adding electrical conductivity.
Disperses into binders to yield smooth, low-energy surfaces on chutes, hoppers, and cutting tools for clean release and easier cleanup.
Protects graphite and ceramic refractories from attack and sticking in foundries, brazing, and high-temp heat-treating lines.
Lowers density and mold shrinkage, improves abrasion resistance, and adds slip in engineering thermoplastics, PU, and elastomers.
Provides silky slip, optical soft focus, and sebum control in premium skin-care and color formulations.

Stable under normal conditions.
May react with strong oxidizing agents or halogens at elevated temperatures.
Fine powder may cause mechanical irritation to the respiratory tract.
Prolonged inhalation of dust should be avoided.
Long-term exposure to airborne dust could lead to respiratory discomfort or dryness but no known systemic toxicity.
Use dust mask or NIOSH-approved respirator.
Wear protective gloves, safety goggles, and suitable lab clothing.
Use local exhaust or general ventilation to minimize airborne dust.
Avoid creating airborne dust.
Sweep up material gently and collect in labeled container for disposal.
Do not wash to drain.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption or contamination.
Use extinguishing media suitable for surrounding fire (BN itself is non-combustible).
Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) if powders are airborne.
Not classified as dangerous goods (per UN, DOT, IMO, IATA).
Safe for transport under general conditions.
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from moisture and direct sunlight.
Maintain ambient temperatures below 40 °C and relative humidity below 60%.
Avoid exposure to high humidity, as moisture can cause powder clumping and affect flow properties.
Keep material in tightly sealed containers made of plastic, fiber drum, or lined metal.
Reseal opened containers immediately after use to prevent contamination and moisture absorption.
Clearly label containers with product name and batch number.
Store away from strong oxidizers, acids, or halogen compounds that could react under high temperature.
Avoid storing near combustible materials even though BN is non-flammable.
Handle powders in a dust-controlled area or under local exhaust ventilation.
Avoid generating airborne dust during transfer or mixing.
Use clean, dry tools to prevent contamination
