Hexagonal Boron Nitride (h-BN) is a chemical compound made up of boron and nitrogen atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice structure. It is often referred to as "white graphite" due to its similar layered structure to graphite, which allows for easy cleavage and lubrication properties. h-BN is an excellent electrical insulator and has high thermal conductivity, making it useful in various applications, including electronics and materials science. In addition to its electrical and thermal properties, h-BN is chemically stable and resistant to oxidation at high temperatures. This makes it suitable for use in high-performance coatings, ceramics, and as a filler in composite materials. Its unique properties have led to its exploration in fields such as nanotechnology and pharmaceuticals.
