Description

BW3250® is 99.5% pure BeO and delivers improved performance for circuits and applications generating high heat. BeO has a lower dielectric constant of 6.7 compared to AlN's 9.7 dielectric constant. BW ceramics offer electrical resistivity and dielectric strength equivalent to competitive materials. BW3250 BeO ceramic offers higher thermal conductivity than BW 1000 ceramic, but with lower flexural strength.

This material data has been provided by Materion Brush GmbH.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
