What is Boron carbide?

Boron carbide (B4C) is also called black diamond. It is grayish black, as well as is a really difficult synthetic product: Its Morse solidity scale is 9.3, microhardness is 5500 ~ 6700kg/mm2, 2nd just to ruby and cubic boron nitride.

Boron carbide framework is hexagonal crystal. Boron carbide density is 2.52 g/cm3. Boron carbide melting point is 2450 ℃, as well as it breaks down and volatilizes quickly when the temperature is higher than 2800 ℃.

Boron carbide residential or commercial properties

Boron carbide is insoluble in water and organic solvents, has solid chemical stability, is immune to acid and alkali deterioration, as well as does not respond with nearly all acid as well as alkali services. Boron carbide has big thermal neutron capture random sample as well as solid neutron absorption capability, so it is called neutron absorber and also semiconductive.

What are the advantages of boron carbide?

High solidity.

Low thickness.

High melting factor.

High elastic modulus.

Chemical inertia.

High neutron absorption sample.

Excellent thermoelectric performance.

Boron carbide uses

Due to its appealing combination of characteristics, it is a suitable material for numerous high-performance applications.

The superb solidity of boron carbide makes it an ideal grinding powder for grinding, polishing and also water jet cutting of steels as well as porcelains. It is suitable for grinding, polishing, boring as well as various other handling of all kinds of concrete carbide devices, moulds, components, parts and also gemstones. Boron carbide can be made into grinding paste as well as brightening paste with appropriate quantity of oil or water as lube.

The combination of reduced specific gravity, high hardness as well as affordable toughness makes it an ideal product for vehicle body as well as lorry shield.

Boron carbide is also widely made use of as control poles, securing materials and also neutron detectors in nuclear reactors due to the fact that it can soak up neutrons without developing long-lived radionuclides.

Since it is a p-type semiconductor, boron carbide can be a suitable candidate for electronic gadgets that can work at heats.

Boron carbide is likewise an excellent p-type thermoelectric material.

Some typical boron carbide applications include:

Sandblasting nozzle.

Ball and also roller bearings.

Securing parts.

Cable drawing pass away.

Armor
