New applications of wurtzite boron nitride

Wurtzite boron nitride demonstrates  excellent  heat resistance properties, which is well known. But the  main advantage of this material are the highest (among similar heat resistant materials)  stabilities of coating layer and thermal characteristics. This makes wurtzite boron nitride the most appropriate material for coating of melting molds,  3D printers parts  and more. 
Below is an interesting example of heat resistance properties of 100% cotton, impregnated with wurtzite boron nitride paste. Apparently impregnated cotton remains solid for a much longer time, than  pure fabric.


Similar experiment for graphite electrode from National, USA., dimensions 12'x0.8'. The electrode was coated with boron nitride paste and left in oven under temperature of  1832 °F for 8 hours. Oval shows area, which was placed in furnace.  As you see, protected area is also burnt, but much less than the rest of the electrode.
