Boron carbide is one of the hardest and lightest known ceramics. It is formed by hot-pressing, so making complicated shapes is difficult. Because the boron-10 isotope will absorb neutrons, boron carbide is an important material in nuclear process...
Boron Carbide based MMC Adding an interesting dimension to MC-21's product portfolio, boron carbide (B4C) can be added to yield MMC sheet with neutron absorption characteristics required in the storage andor transportation of radioactive materials....
Sinter Grade Boron Carbide Powders are specially sized to aid in the manufacturing of sintered ceramic parts. They are typically fine powders with an average particle size of less than 10 microns and a specially tailored size distribution....
