Re:Higher Thermal Conductivty Than Diamond Found in Boron Ar... by southwindcg on Friday November 14, 2025 @02:20PM (#45930867)
Specifically when produced with "exceptional purity"...

Wikipedia [0] lists room temperature thermal conductivity at 1300 W/(m·K) and says "Chemical synthesis of cubic BAs is very challenging and its single crystal forms usually have defects." I guess it remains to be seen how cheaply and easily this "exceptional purity" can be achieved.
