Overview of Nitride Powder
Nitride powder is a kind of metal powder or ceramics widely applied in many technical applications and became high tech materials in the Engineered Ceramics industry. Metal-type nitrides powders are metal-like in appearance, hardness, and electrical conductivity, and generally have high hardness, high melting point, stable chemical properties, and electrical conductivity.
Nitride of titanium, vanadium, zirconium, tantalum, etc. is hard and refractory, and has the characteristics of chemical corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance. Titanium nitride is a good conductor of heat and electricity, and zirconium nitride has superconductivity at low temperatures.

Nitride Powder Applications:
Of which Aluminum nitride (AlN) is known for excellent thermal conductivity and good chemical resistance; boron nitride (BN) for its softness and lubricant properties. Silicon nitride (Si3N4) is an excellent choice for sintered bodies requiring good thermal shock resistance and high fracture toughness. In addition, a full range of ceramic nitride materials for various industrial applications is offered. Calcuim Nitride (Ca3N2) is widely used in chemical industry as a significant chemical reagent and has important uses in the chemical industry. Calcium nitride can be used to obtain reactive nitride ions. Zirconium nitride is used as the reactor material.

5 FAQs of Nitride Powder
What are the main applications of nitride powders?
Nitride powders are widely used in producing ceramics, cutting tools, wear-resistant components, and in electronic industries due to their high thermal conductivity and resistance to heat and chemicals.
How pure is industrial-grade nitride powder?
Industrial-grade nitride powders typically have a purity exceeding 99%, though this can vary based on the specific product and its intended use.
Can nitride powders be used in high-temperature applications?
Yes, because of their excellent thermal stability and resistance to oxidation at high temperatures, nitride powders are suitable for high-temperature applications.
What affects the particle size of nitride powders?
The particle size of nitride powders can be controlled during the synthesis process, which influences properties such as density and hardness, tailoring them for specific applications.
Is nitride powder hazardous?
While nitride powders are generally stable and non-hazardous under normal conditions, it's important to handle them with care, avoiding inhalation or contact with eyes and skin, and to follow appropriate safety guidelines.
