Aluminum nitride (ALN) is a hard, dense, non-porous, high purity substrate. It offers excellent thermal conductivity and uniformity, superior moisture and chemical resistance, excellent size and shape capability, a precise and repeatable pattern, and distributed wattage.
This substrate is ideal for high temperature medical applications up to 1000oC. It’s ideal for instrumentation involved in dialysis, CPAP, DNA analysis/testing, temperature therapy, and sterilization. It can also be used in surgical devices, vessel sealers, instrument warming, MRI equipment, and blood/fluid warming applications.
