Beryllium Oxide Rod Description:
Beryllium Oxide (BeO) Rod is a unique ceramic material characterized by its outstanding thermal conductivity, which is comparable to that of metals like copper. It also offers excellent electrical insulation properties, making it ideal for high-performance electronic applications. BeO is highly resistant to thermal shock and can operate at elevated temperatures without degrading, making it suitable for extreme environments. Additionally, it is chemically stable and resistant to many acids and bases. These properties, along with their lightweight nature, make Beryllium Oxide Rods highly valuable in industries such as electronics, aerospace, and nuclear technology.
