Boron Carbide Powder (B4C) a black crystal powder, is one of the hardest Man-Made materials. Its hardness with Mohs hardness 9.36 and microscopic hardness 5400-6300kg/mm2 is only near upon diamond. Its density is 2.52g/cm3 and melting point is 2450ºC. It has excellent abrasion resistance and large neutron-absorbing cross section. The boron carbide possesses properties of endurance hi/low temperature, no reaction with either acids or alkalis, high grinding efficiency, no magnetism. It is a good replacement of diamond. Boron carbide also possesses the special properties of light quality, neutron absorbing, semi-conductivity, etc., so it is widely used in machinery, electronics, instrumentation, metallurgy, national defense, armed forces, nuclear, aviation industry, and also used as abrasives, classic refractory and specific welding materials, human protection materials and so on.
Boron carbide is widely applied as follows: boriding refractory, ion transfusion, film layer as well as grinding, polishing, lapping, drilling hard metal alloys, sapphire, watches, jewels, etc. Meanwhile, it is main material for the wear-resisting parts, precise meter-age element, sandblasting nozzle, precise spray nozzle, sealed washer, smelting boron steel, boron alloy, etc.
Boron carbide has showed many better properties of physics and chemistry in the hi-science/technology fields.

A2: Different specification products with different quantity ordered, the time of delivery is different. As usual, it will take 15-25 work days.
Q3: How can we guarantee quality?
A3: Always a pre-production sample before mass production and always a final inspection before
shipment.
Q4: What is your terms of payment?
A4: T/T, L/C, PayPal, and can be negotiated.
Q5: How to solve the quality problems after sales?
A5: (1) Take photos of the problems and send to us.
(2) Take videos of the problems and send to us.
(3) Send back the defective products to us if necessary. After we confirmed the problems, will give you the answer within 7 days.
