What is Boron carbide?

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

Boron carbide framework is hexagonal crystal. Boron carbide density is 2.52 g/cm3. Boron carbide melting factor is 2450 ℃, and it disintegrates as well as volatilizes rapidly when the temperature level is more than 2800 ℃.

Boron carbide residential properties

Boron carbide is insoluble in water and also organic solvents, has solid chemical stability, is resistant to acid and also alkali deterioration, as well as does not react with nearly all acid as well as alkali options. Boron carbide has big thermal neutron capture cross section and solid neutron absorption capability, so it is called neutron absorber and semiconductive.

What are the benefits of boron carbide?

High firmness.

Low thickness.

High melting factor.

High flexible modulus.

Chemical inertia.

High neutron absorption cross section.

Excellent thermoelectric performance.

Boron carbide uses

Because of its attractive mix of qualities, it is an appropriate product for several high-performance applications.

The excellent solidity of boron carbide makes it a suitable grinding powder for grinding, brightening as well as water jet cutting of steels and also ceramics. It is suitable for grinding, polishing, drilling and various other processing of all type of concrete carbide tools, moulds, parts, parts as well as gems. Boron carbide can be made right into grinding paste as well as polishing paste with ideal amount of oil or water as lube.

The combination of reduced specific gravity, high hardness as well as affordable durability makes it an appropriate material for automobile body and lorry armor.

Boron carbide is likewise extensively utilized as control rods, securing materials as well as neutron detectors in nuclear reactors since it can take in neutrons without forming long-lived radionuclides.

Because it is a p-type semiconductor, boron carbide can be a suitable candidate for digital tools that can operate at high temperatures.

Boron carbide is likewise a superb p-type thermoelectric product.

Some regular boron carbide applications consist of:

Sandblasting nozzle.

Round as well as roller bearings.

Securing components.

Cord drawing die.

Armor
