Research progress in the preparation and application of h-BN containing ceramics by Xusheng LIU, Xuekun TIAN, Zhenyi ZHAO, Donghong YAN, Tianpei YIN, Jinhua LIU, Xinmei HOU, Xinhong LIU

“…The fabrication of h-BN ceramics mainly relies on sintering, a critical final step in ceramic production that determines the ultimate performance of materials. However, the intrinsic properties of h-BN—characterized by strong covalent bonding, a high melting point, and a low solid-phase self-diffusion coefficient—present substantial challenges in achieving high-density sintered bodies. …”
