Boron carbide performance:

Boron carbide powder is gray and black powder, with a low density, high strength, high temperature stability and good chemical stability, wear-resistant materials, ceramic reinforcement, especially for use in lightweight armor, and other aspects of reactor neutron absorber.

Boron carbide Application:

1. Control of nuclear fission

Boron carbide can absorb large amounts of neutrons without forming any radioisotope, so it is the most ideal neutron absorber in nuclear power plant, and is mainly controlled nuclear fission neutron absorber rates. Boron carbide in nuclear reactor field is mainly to make control rod ,but sometimes because want to increase the surface area and put it into a powder.

2. Abrasive materials

Boron carbide has been used as a grit abrasive material in long time ago. Because of its high melting point in itself, is not easy to cast artifacts, but by high temperature melting powder which can be processed into a simple shape. Widely used in carbide, precious stones and other hard materials, grinding, grinding, drilling and polishing.

3. Coating Material

Boron carbide can be as warships and helicopter ceramic coating, its light weight and the ability to resist the projectile to penetrate into the overall anti-hot coating layer.

4. nozzle

In the arms industry used to make guns nozzles. Boron carbide, an extremely hard and wear resistance, high / low temperature, high pressure, high hardness, wear resistance than with boron carbide features,, boron carbide nozzles nozzle system will gradually replace the known carbide / tungsten carbide and steel silicon, silicon nitride, alumina, zirconia, and other materials of nozzles.

5. Other

Boron carbide is also used in the manufacture of metal borides and smelting boron, sodium, boron alloys and special welding.
