Boron Carbide Powder

Boron Carbide Powder Description

Boron Carbide Powder is known for its ultra-high hardness, low density, and exceptional resistance to wear and chemical corrosion, making it a preferred material in ballistic armor, abrasives, and high-temperature applications. Its fine particle size and stable chemical properties ensure consistent performance in ceramic processing, metal matrix composites, and nuclear-grade applications. In addition to this irregular powder form, we also provide spherical Boron Carbide Powder, which offers improved flowability and packing density for use in additive manufacturing, thermal spraying, and advanced powder metallurgy.

Boron Carbide Powder Applications

• Abrasive Materials: Used in grinding, lapping, and polishing applications due to their extreme hardness.
• Ceramic Armor: Applied in lightweight ballistic armor for military and personal protection.
• Wear-Resistant Components: Used to produce engineering parts exposed to abrasive and erosive environments.
• Neutron Shielding: Serves as an effective neutron absorber in nuclear reactors and radiation shielding.
• Advanced Ceramics: Functions as a sintering aid in silicon carbide ceramics and other high-performance materials.

Boron Carbide Powder Packaging

The Boron Carbide Powder is carefully placed in wooden cases or cartons with additional support from soft materials to prevent any shifting during transportation. This packaging method guarantees the integrity of the products throughout the delivery process.
