Applications of boron carbide F100
F100 particle size range: 150-180 microns
F100 is a medium grit, suitable for coarse grinding or medium precision grinding operations.
Boron carbide F100 application fields:
Ballistic material: ballistic armor .Boron carbide has high hardness and lightweight properties.
Nuclear industry: Boron carbide has good neutron absorption capabilities and it use in control rods or shielding materials in nuclear reactors.
Abrasive materials: Boron carbide with F100 particle size can be used to make grinding wheels, grinding paste, etc.
The main characteristics of boron carbide:
Hardness: Mohs hardness 9.6, second only to diamond and cubic boron nitride.
Density: about 2.52 g/cm³, it is a lightweight material.
High temperature resistance: The melting point is as high as 2450°C, and it has good stability under high temperatures.
Chemical stability: acid and alkali resistance, excellent antioxidant properties.
