- Product Highlights
- Hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN), commonly referred to as “white graphite”, is an advanced synthetic ceramic. hBN is a non-toxic, dielectric, white powder with excellent thermal conductivity, oxidation resistance and lubricating properties, even at elevated temperatures above 600 °C. This unique combination of properties makes it a superior solid lubricant with extreme thermal stability.
- PTFE, a white fluorocarbon solid at room temperature, is a high-molecular-weight thermoplastic polymer consisting wholly of extremely strong bonds between carbon and fluorine. Chemically inert and hydrophobic in nature, PTFE is a superior dielectric and extremely lubricious.
- Hexagonal Boron Nitride is the only material known to fully wet PTFE. When introduced in the matrix of a fluoropolymer, such as PTFE, it reinforces the fluoropolymer. This results in a blend with significantly higher durability and wear properties, even at elevated temperatures, while preserving and supplementing other critical properties such as dielectric constant and chemical inertness.
- CER-FCP8020G and CER-FCP9010G FluoroCeramic powders are PTFE and hBN at an 80:20 ratio and a 90:10 ratio offering a wider application range to replace just PTFE powders alone.

Packaging & Availability
- Container Size
CER-FCP8020G powder is plastic bagged with desiccant, then packaged in a puncture resistant cardboard box. Each box has a net weight of 55 lbs (25 kg) of CER-FCP8020G powder. Each pallet contains twelve (12) boxes or 660 lbs (300 kg).
Storage & Handling
- Storage
Cerflon® powders are best stored in their original container in a cool, dry environment along with a desiccant. Keep container closed when not in use to avoid contamination.
