Boron carbide ceramics is one of the striking non oxide ceramics, in the civil space and have played an important role in the military field Because of its high hardness, high melting point Low density thermal stability is good Strong ability to resist chemical attack and neutron absorption ability and has been applied in national defense, the national security maintenance plays an important role. 

In the 1960s, boron carbide ceramic was applied to the cockpit floor of armed helicopters, side wall bulletproof panels and pilot seats. At present, boron carbide bulletproof material has been widely used in the field of bulletproof armor armor armored armed helicopters and other protection.

In recent years, the research depth and strength of boron carbide ceramics have been increasing, and people are more committed to developing advanced and practical molding process and sintering process technology research, so that boron carbide products can be applied in some high-tech fields and further industrial production.
