· JVASP-138168· BeN

Beryllium nitride (BeN) is a ceramic compound combining beryllium and nitrogen, belonging to the family of binary nitride ceramics. It is primarily of research and development interest rather than a mature commercial material, being investigated for applications requiring excellent thermal conductivity, electrical insulation, and chemical stability at elevated temperatures. BeN's potential lies in advanced thermal management and high-performance semiconductor applications where traditional ceramics fall short, though production challenges and beryllium's toxicological profile currently limit widespread industrial adoption.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
