PBN Heater, Pyrolytic Boron Nitride Heaters

PBN Heater, Pyrolytic Boron Nitride Heaters

Pyrolytic Boron Nitride (PBN) heaters are high-temperature heating elements used in various applications such as semiconductor manufacturing, crystal growth, and advanced materials processing. PBN heaters are made from pyrolytic boron nitride material which is deposited in a high-temperature chemical vapor deposition process.

PBN heaters have excellent thermal stability and high-temperature resistance, making them ideal for use in harsh environments. They can reach temperatures up to 2000°C in vacuum and 1700°C in air. PBN heaters also have excellent chemical stability, low thermal conductivity, and low dielectric constant.

PBN heaters come in various shapes and sizes, including rods, tubes, and custom-designed shapes. They can be used in both horizontal and vertical orientations, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. PBN heaters can also be coated with other materials such as platinum for enhanced performance in specific applications.
