Description
Aluminum Nitride (AlN) Powder – Purity: 99.5%, Hexagonal
Aluminum Nitride (AlN) Powder is a high-performance ceramic material with exceptional thermal conductivity (up to 320 W/m·K), high electrical insulation, and excellent mechanical stability. Its hexagonal crystal structure and purity of 99.5% make it an essential material for advanced electronic packaging, thermal management, and high-temperature applications.
With a very low thermal expansion coefficient (3.5 × 10⁻⁶ K⁻¹) closely matching that of silicon, AlN is particularly valuable in the semiconductor industry, ensuring reliability and stability in integrated circuits and microelectronic devices.
