TRÈS BN cosmetic grades PUHP1010J, PUHP3008J and PUHP1109J are ultra-purity boron nitride powders that have been certified by the Japan Food Research Laboratory as having met the Japan Quasi-Drug raw material specification for boron nitride. Each TRÈS BN grade has unique properties that are associated with crystal size, morphology, and surface characteristics but all are soft, smooth and adherent. TRÈS BN powders may be used as a major stand-alone component in pressed and loose powders, or as minor additive to any formulation for improved texture, enhanced luminosity, decreased tack and increased pick-up and play-time in skin creams. In formulations where talc, mica or bismuthoxychloride are undesirable or fall short on performance, TRÈS BN powders offer a perfect alternative.
