According to the US Air Force, 55% of their electronic component failures are due to temperature.*
With increasing global trends in miniaturization of electronic systems and weight savings in transportation, designers and material engineers need to find innovative solutions to meet the thermal management requirements of more compact designs
Boron nitride: An excellent heat conductor and electrical insulator
Boron nitride (BN) has been gaining interest as a filler in thermoplastics to increase thermal conductivity of resins. It is unique in the sense that it is an excellent conductor of heat yet still electrically insulating.
Plastics containing BN are being used to replace traditional metal parts in a number of markets to improve heat-related performance and increase the lifetime of systems. Overall system cost and complexity can be reduced.
Examples of potential applications include under-the-hood automotive parts, sensors and housings for motors, LEDs and many other electronic devices, molded heat sinks, and medical device components - basically, anywhere heat is an issue.
