Boron carbide is a kind of carbide of boron, molecular formula of 4C, boron carbide is made from boric acid or boron trioxide and toner in an electric furnace
The theoretical density of boron carbide is 2.519g/cm3, the melting point is 2450℃, and boron carbide is hexagonal dark
Color, microhardness of 4950kgf/mm2, the extremely high barrier makes it second only to diamond and cubic boron nitride.
It has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, acid and alkali corrosion resistance, high strength, high chemical stability, high elastic modulus, light specific gravity and so on.These factors make the addition of boron carbide as particle reinforcer to alumina and silicon carbide ceramics improve the fracture toughness and strength of the materials at the same time
Enhanced, boron carbide also has a larger thermal neutron capture 3, which can absorb a large number of neutrons, above these characteristics and properties, making carbon
Boron carbide is widely used in the fields of machinery, metallurgy, chemical industry, aerospace and military industry, etc. It can be used to produce abrasives for processing precious stones and ceramics
Porcelain, cutting tools, bearings, used as refractories in all fields of metallurgy, densified boron carbide can be made into nozzle, mechanical seal
Sealing parts, bulletproof materials.
The density of boron carbide products produced by our company is close to the theoretical value (2.52g/cm3), with high hardness and abrasion
Small, corrosion resistant, low unit cost and reduced replacement time make it an ideal material for nozzles and mechanical seals.
