Boron nitride rods are made of powdered hexagonal boron nitride through high-temperature vacuum hot-pressing sintering. Boron nitride rods have good resistance to high temperatures, extremely stable chemical properties, resistance to strong acid corrosion and high electrical insulation properties. The distinctive feature of boron nitride rod is that it is non-wetting with most molten metals, therefore it can be used to produced ceramic nozzles or crucibles for metal smelting jobs. Unlike alumina ceramic or zirconia ceramic, boron nitride rods have low hardness and good machinablity, the machining will be easily done with common metal working tools.

Performance comparison of boron nitride ceramics and alumina ceramics:
Compared with alumina ceramics, boron nitride ceramics have the following advantages:
1. Boron nitride ceramic has maximum working temperature under atmosphere protection up to 2100 degrees, and alumina ceramic does not exceed 1700 degrees.
2. The thermal shock resistance of boron nitride ceramic is much better than alumina ceramic, boron nitride ceramic will not crack when unergoing rapid temperature rise or fall, it will not crack if it is taken out of the 1000 celsium degree furnace and blowed and quenched continuously for 100 times. Alumina ceramic is easy to crack when working temperature rises or falls quickly.
3. Electrical insulation strength of boron nitride ceramic is 3-4 times that of alumina ceramic.
4. Boron nitride ceramic does not react or bond with moleten glasses or metals, are used as containers for high-temperature sintering or melting crucibles, setter plates, etc.
Compared with alumina ceramics, the disadvantages of boron nitride ceramics are:
1. The strength, hardness and wear resistance of boron nitride ceramics are lower than that of alumina ceramic, and it is not suitable for use under vibration and friction conditions.
2. The use temperature of boron nitride ceramics in the air is only 1000 celsium degrees, and it will oxidize if it exceeds 1000 degrees.
