Hexagonal Boron Nitride its called even "white graphite", i know they use it in ceramics and put it in resins too as substitute of graphite to avoid conductivity when needed etc, they use it in bearings and so on, it gives self lubricant properties to the mix exactly like graphite.
I never seen it so i dont really know how white it is but if i can put my sticky fingers on some id love try it and say goodbye to the black color of the graphite mixes.
Anyone out there with any practical experience with the stuff? (and they even sell it to mere mortals in North America?)

uhmm no intention to highjack the thread so if you guys want i can make a new post.
