What are the uses of boron carbide?
Boron carbide (B₄C) is a premium ultra-hard ceramic material with Mohs hardness of 9.3–9.6, only inferior to diamond and cubic boron nitride. It features low density, excellent wear resistance, stable chemical inertness, high melting point and outstanding neutron absorption capacity. Thanks to this unique combination of physical and chemical characteristics, boron carbide powder and sintered
