2. Market Potential Analysis

Boron nitride nanofiber is an important high-performance ceramic material, a typical structural/functional integrated material, which combines the characteristics of high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, thermal shock resistance, low dielectric constant and dielectric loss, high thermal conductivity, and strong wave transmission of boron nitride materials. In addition, nanofiber materials have the advantages of fine morphology, high specific surface area, low density, light weight, and multiple active sites, which can serve as the second phase of composite materials The enhanced performance of thermal and dielectric properties can also play a separate role in the fields of organic matter adsorption, particle loading, etc. It is not only used as an excellent thermal management material for microelectronic component packaging, device system assembly, and new energy power battery heat dissipation, but also meets the strict requirements of the rapid development of precision guided missiles, aerospace aircraft, carrier rockets, and aircraft for the performance of aerospace transparent materials. In addition, porous boron nitride also plays an important role in filtration, adsorption, catalytic carriers, hydrogen storage, drug transport, and composite material addition and modification. Therefore, high-performance boron nitride nanomaterials have broad application prospects in high-end technology fields such as aerospace, nuclear industry, electronics, and new energy, and are key raw materials for both military and civilian use.

The high-end boron nitride macro-preparation technology is currently under foreign blockade, and the research and development of ultrafine boron nitride nanomaterial powders (including porous boron nitride, nanofibers, nanotubes, nanosheets, etc.) in China started relatively late, and so far, no industrial production scale has been formed. By now, various preparation methods have problems such as high cost, low yield, harsh synthesis conditions, low purity, and poor stability to varying degrees. High-performance boron nitride nanofiber powders have low single production in the laboratory, which not only results in high prices but also far from meeting application needs in terms of production capacity.

At present, American and European companies are in a monopolistic position in the high-end market of boron nitride powder materials both internationally and domestically. Domestic manufacturers are concentrated in Liaoning, Shandong, Henan and other regions, covering some industries such as lubricants, composite materials, personal care products, coatings, etc. However, the preparation process of high-grade boron nitride nanomaterials (including boron nitride nanosheets, nanospheres, nanotubes, nanofibers, porous boron nitride, etc.) is generally outdated, the product specifications are limited, and the high-end products heavily rely on imports.

The preparation process of boron nitride ultrafine nanofibers is complex, involving many reactions and influencing factors, with the low yield and high price. The key technology for macro-quantitative preparation of boron nitride nanofibers and porous materials and the independently developed production equipment in this project are simple in the process, green in the production process, and have the large-scale potential. They can directly provide military enterprises and scientific research institutes with small batch applications of boron nitride nanofibers and porous boron nitride nanomaterials, while taking into account the huge demand of downstream applications for the output of ultra fine boron nitride nanopowders.

With the implementation of the project, the continuous expansion of the production capacity, continuous cost reduction and efficiency improvement, competitiveness will be further significantly enhanced. Therefore, the product added value of this project is high and it has the great development potential. It will have a huge market size and a later industrial ecosystem, which can create huge economic and social benefits.
