Used as a high-temperature lubricant due to its layered structure similar to graphite, providing smooth performance in extreme heat where traditional lubricants fail. Commonly found in aerospace and automotive applications for this reason.

Widely used in cosmetics, especially in powders and foundations, because it offers a soft, silky texture and helps achieve a matte finish while being non-comedogenic.

Acts as an excellent electrical insulator with high thermal conductivity, making it ideal for use in electronics such as heat sinks, thermal interface materials, and printed circuit boards where heat must be dissipated without causing electrical shorts.

Employed in the production of cutting tools and abrasives when in its cubic form, which rivals diamond in hardness, suitable for machining hard materials and wear-resistant coatings.

Used as a release agent in metal casting and molding processes because it resists adhesion and withstands very high temperatures without breaking down.

Applied in nanotechnology and advanced composites to enhance thermal management in lightweight materials for electronics and defense applications.
