Top Selling Boron Nitride Coatings

Boron Nitride Lubricoat is our proven “workhorse” release agent for high-temperature use. BN Lubricoat® is ideal for providing true Teflon®–like non-wetting for all liquid metal transfer system components. Also, BN Lubricoat is non-reactive and non-stick with glass, slags, fluxes.   As a lubricant/non-stick agent, BN Lubricoat is ideal for hot-pressing and glass forming.

Boron Nitride Lubricoat-ZV is a relatively tough and abrasion-resistant coating that also provides excellent nonwetting with aluminium, magnesium, zinc and other nonferrous metals and alloys. The coating is designed to be diluted with water as desired.   Due to having its pH-Basic/Alkaline the “ZV” is compatible with mild steel and cast iron substrates as well as ceramics.

BN Releasecoat is a relatively-soft, washcoat-type of coating with a lower BN content which still provides excellent nonwetting and release with aluminum, magnesium, zinc and other nonferrous metals and alloys.

Boron Nitride Hardcoat® is the original truly tough, abrasion-resistant boron nitride coating. BN-Hardcoat® is non-wetting with molten aluminum, magnesium, zinc and other non-ferrous metals and their drosses. Ideal for high-wear uses where all other boron nitride coatings fail. BN Hardcoat should ONLY be applied and dried at room temperature.

NOTE: This paint contains acrylic polymers. Do not use elevated temperatures for the drying process. Dry at room temperature before placing into a furnace environment where any emitted vapors or volatiles will be combusted.

Boron Nitride Hardcoat® CM is the same “fired” constituency as our original tough, abrasion-resistant boron nitride coating and maintains the same performance as the original but contains NO acrylics making it safer to use. BN Hardcoat CM is non-wetting with molten aluminum, magnesium, zinc and other non-ferrous metals and their drosses. Ideal for high-wear uses where all other boron nitride coatings fail. Can be applied to cold or hot substrates whereas the original BN Hardcoat should only be applied and dried at room temperature.

JK 41 is a specially formulated BN coating for the extreme stretching of superplastic forming operations. The uniform-sized BN particles give good adhesion and lubrication over the superplastic-forming/quick-plastic-forming (SPF/QPF) cycle.   The consistency of JK 41 is ideal for automatic or robotic air-spraying setups.

BN Lubricoat-ZS is the same as our regular BN Lubricoat except for using a hydrochloric-acid “peptizer” instead of nitric-acid. The “ZS” version is thus somewhat better in adherence and also more dilutable with water than our regular BN Lubricoat. The “ZS” works well as long as the surface/substrate is OK with this type of acidic carrier.

BN Aerosol Lubricoat is a convenient aerosol-can for applying thin, uniform, quick-drying layers of BN onto most any substrate. The aerosol-can allows the creation of a dry-film-lubricant and provides the great properties of BN that is easy-to-use with low electrical conduction; high thermal conduction; prevents reactions between materials; and has superior release.

ZYP Coating’s “BN Aerosol Brushable” is the same formulation that is used in our BN Aerosol spray can … but is in BULK paint form, sold by the gallon.  The BN Aerosol Brushable can be applied by brushing, traditional air-spraying means, or dipping. Usable in any environment from room temperature to over 1000 C (1832 F). BN Aerosol Brushable can be diluted with Acetone for somewhat faster drying or with Ethyl Alcohol for somewhat slower drying.
