Overview of Factory s F100 F200 F220 Boron Carbide B4C powder for Industrial Ceramic boron carbide plates

Boron Carbide (B4C) is a ceramic compound renowned for its exceptional hardness and wear resistance, ranking just below diamond and cubic boron nitride in terms of hardness. Composed of boron and carbon atoms arranged in a covalently bonded crystal structure, it exhibits unique physical and chemical properties that make it highly valuable in various industrial and military applications. Boron carbide’s high melting point, low density, neutron-absorbing capability, and extreme toughness further distinguish it among advanced materials.

Features of Factory s F100 F200 F220 Boron Carbide B4C powder for Industrial Ceramic boron carbide plates

  1. Extreme Hardness: With a Mohs hardness of around 9.3 to 9.5, boron carbide is one of the hardest materials known, surpassed only by diamond and cubic boron nitride.

  2. Lightweight: Despite its hardness, boron carbide has a relatively low density of about 2.52 g/cm³, which makes it an attractive material for lightweight armor systems.

  3. Thermal Stability: It possesses excellent thermal stability, maintaining its properties up to temperatures around 2,000°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications.

  4. Neutron Absorption: Boron carbide is a potent neutron absorber due to its boron content, making it ideal for nuclear shielding and control rods.

  5. Chemical Resistance: Resistant to most acids and alkalis, except for hydrofluoric acid and hot concentrated alkaline solutions, ensuring durability in corrosive environments.

  6. Abrasion Resistance: Its exceptional wear resistance makes it suitable for applications where friction and abrasion are prevalent, such as sandblasting nozzles.
