Aluminum Nitride (AlN) Nanopowder/Nanoparticles

Purity: 99+%, Size: 50 nm

Aluminum Nitride (AlN) is characterized by its exceptionally fine particle size and significant specific surface area. Presented as an off-white powder, the material stands out due to its low impurity levels and stable structural properties. Engineered through advanced synthesis methods, these nanoparticles ensure a homogenous distribution in material science research and precise industrial formulations, offering a high-density consistency that supports structural integrity.

Technical Properties

Applications

• Electronics & Semiconductors: Used as a substrate and heat sink material for high-power transistors, CPUs, and Integrated Circuits (ICs). Since its thermal expansion coefficient is similar to Silicon, it prevents mechanical stress and damage during thermal cycling. Preferred in RF (Radio Frequency) filters and high-frequency signal transmitters to minimize dielectric losses.
• Energy & Automotive: Added to Phase Change Materials (PCM) in Battery Management Systems (BMS) to rapidly dissipate heat, significantly improving battery life and safety. Used to enhance heat transfer efficiency in photovoltaic systems and thermal energy storage units.
• Aerospace & Defense: Used in the housing of sensors operating under high temperatures and high pressure, such as in jet engines. Utilized in radomes and infrared (IR) detectors due to its mechanical durability and optical transparency at specific wavelengths.
• Healthcare & Biomedical: Researched as a "nanocarrier" for targeted drug delivery (e.g., for flutamide in cancer treatment) due to its biocompatibility potential at controlled doses. A core material for manufacturing piezoelectric transducers (MEMS) used in high-resolution ultrasound and diagnostic devices.
• Manufacturing & Metallurgy: Due to its non-reactive nature, it is used for the inner lining of crucibles for melting non-ferrous metals and sensitive semiconductor crystals like Gallium Arsenide.
