FROM COSMETICS TO SEMICONDUCTORS:
MATERIALS PROVIDING VERSATILITY AND UNIQUE PERFORMANCE PROPERTIES...

The impact of Advanced Ceramics' products can be seen in many applications. When formed into crucibles for the semiconductor industry, PBN's inert nature and unique thermal/electrical characteristics greatly increase yields. PolarTherm fillers used in polymeric materials provide superior heat dissipation, thus increasing reliability and performance of electronic components and assemblies.

In cosmetics, BN powders improve tactile quality, help products go on smoother and stay on longer. This soft, talc-like powder gives cosmetics a silky, luxurious feel while improving payoff, adhesion, and other characteristics.
