How good is the robotic arm of the Chinese space station?
According to media reports on June 21, the robotic arm on the core module of the China Space Station is currently the most intelligent, difficult, and complex space intelligent manufacturing system in China, and it is the most authentic restoration of a human arm. The robotic arm has a maximum carrying capacity of 25 tons and can move the experimental cabin in the space station. The space station robotic arm can assist astronauts in exiting the cabin. Luoyang Tongrun provides you with high-quality hexagonal boron nitride powder.
Through the docking and separation between the end effector and the target adapter, the core cabin robot arm is similar to the tenon-and-mortise structure commonly used in woodworking. It can realize the cabin crawling function and move to many parts of the space station in a worm-like motion. Reach the outer surfaces of the cabins of the space station in a larger area. The manipulator has the cabin crawl function and realizes the monitoring of the state outside the cabin. When the robotic arm is turned into the experimental cabin, it can carry out the space station construction task. In addition, the robotic arm can capture the visiting hovering aircraft, transfer the cargo spacecraft load, check the status of the space station deck, assist the astronauts in exiting the cabin, and can be combined with the experimental cabin to achieve the robotic arm cascade combination.

What can I choose for aerospace insulation materials?
Hexagonal Boron Nitride (h-BN) is an advanced synthetic ceramic that combines many useful thermal, electrical, physical and chemical properties in a unique material. Boron nitride powder, also known as white graphite, is a non-abrasive white powder with a hexagonal flake crystal structure similar to graphite but has higher oxidation resistance at 800ºC. Boron nitride powder has high thermal conductivity, low friction coefficient, high dielectric constant and chemical inertness.

The properties of hexagonal boron nitride
Boron nitride is the simplest new type of polymer material, with two crystal forms: hexagonal and cubic. It is a product with high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, high insulation and good lubricity. Its anti-oxidation temperature can reach 1000°C, and it has good lubricity even at high temperatures. It is an excellent high-temperature solid lubricant.

Application of Hexagonal Boron Nitride
Hexagonal boron nitride is white (clean appearance), non-toxic and non-conductive. It is an excellent substitute for other commonly used lubricants in metal processing, such as graphite, molybdenum disulfide, organic waxes and oils. In most cases, boron nitride can greatly improve the efficiency of these applications.
1. High-temperature solid lubricants, extrusion anti-wear additives, ceramic composite materials production additives.
2. Special electrolytic and resistance materials under high-temperature conditions.
3. Aerospace insulation materials.
4. Mold release agent for metal forming and lubricant for metal wire drawing.
5. Molten metal crucible; radiator and high-temperature insulator.
6. Raw materials for cosmetics.

In what kind of cosmetics is hexagonal boron nitride usually added?
In the field of beauty, the efficiency and permeability of active substances into the skin are directly related to particle size. Cosmetic particle size is important because smaller particle diameters may increase surface area and may encapsulate cosmetic active substances. The hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) nanomaterials can control the size of the synthesized particles. Hexagonal boron nitride has obvious advantages in cosmetics, especially sunscreen products. It allows the nanostructure to be adjusted in different formation stages, thereby controlling the size and surface area; it has an excellent performance in dispersion, non-toxic and transparent, and chemically inert.
