What are the Main Application Areas of Boron Carbide

What is Boron Carbide?

Boron carburide (also known as black diamand) is a substance that has the molecular formula B4C. It's a gray-black fine powder. It is among the three hardest substances known (the two others being diamond and cubic boron-nitride). Tank armor, bulletproof vests and a variety of industrial applications use it. Boron carbide absorbs a lot of neutrons but does not produce radioisotopes. This makes it an ideal neutron absorption material for nuclear power plants. Neutron absorbers are used to regulate the rate of nuclear fusion. Boron carbide, which is used in nuclear reactors, is mostly made into a controlled rod shape. But sometimes it's made into powder due to the increased surface area.

What are the main applications of Boron Carbide?

(1) The field is national defense. Bullet-proofing has been done with boron carbide ceramics since the 1960s. Comparing it to other materials, its characteristics are easy portability and high toughness. It is a key component of the lightweight armor used on armed helicopters as well as the bulletproof aircraft armor. The British used this material as a raw materials to manufacture armor that can protect against armor-piercing projectsiles.


(2) In terms of raw chemical materials. To increase the wear-resistance and strength of alloys, boron carbide is used as an alloy boronizing agent. This can be done by boronizing the metal surface and generating a thin layer iron boride.


(3) Wear-resistant field. Boron carbide ceramics are visible in a number of industrial nozzles. These include desander nozzles to remove rust and nozzles designed for high-pressure water gun cutting. They are often chosen by factories for their durability under extreme conditions, and cost-effectiveness. . It can also be used to avoid pollution due to abrasive waste during grinding. As a diamond abrasive substitute, boron carbide can be used to reduce the cost of processing various metals as well as jade glass.


(4) Nuclear energy. boron-carbide is commonly used as a neutron absorber in safety rods, control rods and other components. This helps to regulate the rate of nuclear fusion and ensure human safety.


(5) Aviation. The gyroscope in the navigational system of an aircraft is an essential component. Boron carbide can increase the life of this gyroscope by adding it to the material.

Six classifications and applications of graphite

Graphite is classified into six categories and has many applications.
Graphite is abundant in my country, and it's widely distributed. However, many of the small and medium-sized mineral resources are found there. Private small graphite miners have operated in my country, and graphite products are of low added value. After many years of hard work, my country has invested in a large amount of money and technical and scientific personnel. The graphite reserves of my country have been used more efficiently after the reorganization and improvement of the graphite use. Graphite has been developed in my country as high-purity graphite.
1. High purity graphite
High-purity Graphite (carbon contents > 99.99%) can be used to stabilize military industrial pyrotechnics materials, advanced refractory material in the metallurgical sector, Chemical fertilizer catalysts, additives etc.
2. Isostatic Graphite
The graphite used to make isostatic graphite comes from high-purity material. It has a low coefficient of thermal expansion, good heat resistance and chemical resistance. In the past fifty years, isostatic graphite has become a world-first product. It has not only achieved great success in civil applications, but also holds a prominent position in cutting-edge national defense. This is a brand new material, which is also eye-catching. It is mainly used for the following aspects.
(1) Heater to heat polysilicon ingots
As a result of the global warming, the awareness among humans to protect the Earth has increased. More and more people now prefer natural energy that does not emit carbon dioxide. In this trend, solar cell technology has become a "darling" in the new age. The ingot heater that is used during the manufacturing process must be made out of graphite.
Nuclear fission (high temperature gas-cooled) reactor
In order to meet the requirements of graphite as a moderator for high-temperature nuclear reactors that use gas cooling, it must be resistant to deformation and radiation stress. Therefore, a modular high temperature gas cooled reactor has been proposed. Modern ultra-high temperature reactors are characterized by high power density at high temperature. This raises the bar for new graphite materials. They must be of good quality, low cost, have a high radiation damage tolerance and homogenize the product.
Nuclear fusion reactor.
Graphite's special properties also play an important role in nuclear fusion. It can greatly reduce the metal particles in the material's plasma, and therefore plays an important role in improving energy confinement. As nuclear fusion devices expand, graphite wall materials that have high mechanical and thermal strength are the best choice for the first material to face the plasma. These materials also show a good discharge pulsation effect. Because graphite is low in atomic numbers and has low radiation losses, it can be mixed with plasma to keep it stable.
(4) Electric discharge machining electrode.
In the electrodes for electric discharge machining, graphite electrodes offer many advantages. Although graphite is a good material, it has some drawbacks. For example, dust and wear can occur during cutting.
3. Expandable graphite
Also known as acidified or flake graphite. It is made from high-quality graphite. Expanded Graphite offers many advantages, such as high-temperature resistance, high-pressure resistance, good seal performance, and corrosion resistance for various media. It is a type of advanced seal material. It is mainly applied in the following areas.

(1) Environmental protection as a field.
The hydrophobicity and lipophilicity of expanded graphite allows it to selectively remove nonaqueous solutions in water. This feature is commonly used to remove slicks of oil from the sea surface. A large amount of oil can be absorbed by this product due to its molecular composition. It can be aggregated in blocks and float on water. After oil removal, it can also be recycled or reused. Expanded graphite, in addition to its selective adsorption, has an inhibitory impact on air pollution. This includes the adsorption and removal of carbon dioxide.
Sealing Material
The flexible graphite made of expanded graphite is used to seal materials.
4. Graphite fluoride
Graphite fluoride, a high-tech material with high-performance and high-efficiency, is currently being researched around the globe. It has excellent quality and performance, and is widely used as a functional material.

(1) It is used as a releaser.
Graphite-fluoride has a low surface energy, which makes it a good release agent for metal moulds.
Solid lubricants.
Fluorinated Graphite, with its low interlayer energy and low surface energy as well as good chemical and thermal properties, has outstanding lubricating characteristics and is ideal for harsh conditions like high temperature, pressure, corrosive materials and high load.
Batteries Raw Materials
It is very difficult to use fluorine in the active material of batteries that contain fluorine-lithium, because fluorine gas can be poisonous. Fluorinated Graphite is used for its excellent electrochemical properties when mixed with organic electrolytes. This makes it a popular material in the integrated circuit memory of cameras, computers and watches.
5. Colloidal graphite
One of the main features of colloidal graphite is its lubricity. The colloidal film of graphite has an excellent thermal insulation in the vertical direction. It is used widely in turbine propellers and hot steam cylinders. It is used to reduce static electricity in the electronics industry.
6. Graphene
Graphene has a hexagonal honeycomb-like lattice made of carbon atoms, and sp2 hybrid orbitals. This is a two-dimensional, one-atom thick material. It is the most durable and hard nanomaterial ever found.
The special arrangement of its atomic structure has made it widely used.
(1) According to ultra-thin Graphene (single layer graphene almost transparent; its molecules are tightly packed, so that even the smallest of helium atoms can't pass through), the strength is super strong, and it can be used in ultra-light armors, ultra thin and ultra light aircrafts, etc. .
(2) Its conductive atoms have a much higher speed than electrons that move in metal conductors. It can be made into graphene conductor agent.
The rapid movement electrons of this material, which is conductive, allows for its use in the future as a replacement for silicon, such as in curved mobiles, photon sensors, and supercomputers.
Researchers have found that bacteria cannot grow on graphene but human cells do not get damaged. Take advantage of it; graphene is great for bandages, packaging food, etc.

The Bayer Process-The Main Production Method of Alumina

Alumina Bauxite is an oxide of aluminum that is stable. It's also used in ceramics, material science and mining. The rapid development of our country’s electrolytic aluminium, ceramics industries, medicine, electronics and machinery will increase the demand for alumina.
There are a number of methods to extract alumina from ores, such as Bayer, soda-lime-sintering, combined Bayer and sintering, etc. The Bayer Process was the primary method of producing aluminum, accounting for approximately 95% the total world alumina output. Although the acid method made huge progress in the 1970s it was not used by industry.



Bayer process for producing alumina

The Austrian Bayer K.J. Bayer invented it in 1888. The principle is that caustic (NaOH ) solution is used to warm and dissolve the alumina in the bauxite, resulting in sodium aluminate. After the solution (red mud) is separated, the temperature of the mixture is lowered and aluminum hydroxide added as a crystal seed. After long stirring, sodium aluminate separated into aluminum hydroxide. Then, it washed off and calcined in a temperature range of 9501200. The alumina is obtained. Mother liquor is the solution that remains after the precipitation of aluminium hydroxide. This is recycled following evaporation.

Because gibbsite and diaspore are different in their crystalline structure, they will dissolve at different temperatures. The gibbsite-type bauxite dissolves at 125140°C, while the diaspore-type bauxite dissolves at 240260°C with lime (37%).

Bayer Process Alumina Products: Benefits

The Bayer Process is a modern process that has made major progresses in:

1. Equipment of large scale and continuous operation
2. Automation of production processes;
3. Energy-saving techniques such as fluidized roasting, high-pressure enhanced disolution and high pressure enhanced dissolution;
4. Production of sandy alumina for aluminum electrolysis, and the need for flue gas purification. Bayer's advantages

The economic effect of the Bayer Process is determined by the quality of the bauxite, mainly the SiO2 content in the ore, which is usually expressed by the aluminum-silicon ratio of the ore, that is, the weight ratio of the Al2O3 to the SiO2 content in the ore. Because in the dissolution process of the Bayer Process, SiO2 is transformed into sodalite-type hydrated sodium aluminosilicate (Na2O*Al2O3*1.7SiO2*nH2O), which is discharged along with the red mud. The Bayer Process will generate about 1 kg of Al2O3 for every kilogram of SiO2 present in the ore. This is followed by 0.8 kg of NaOH. The Bayer process has a worse economic effect the lower the aluminum-silicon bauxite ratio. The Bayer Process produced bauxite with an aluminum-silicon mixture greater than 8 until the late 1970s. In order to make the most of low-grade gibbsite bauxite and develop new energy-saving technology, research and development has been focused on how to utilize other types of low grade bauxite.

Study on the requirement of organic primer for titanium dioxide in the plastics industry

As a white pigment filler of high quality, has many applications, including in plastic profiles, colormasterbatch, paints, emulsions paints, powders paints for paper making, cosmetics and chemical fibers. It can be used with both the solvent and water systems. The different application and application systems have additional requirements in selecting organic coatings agents. Traditional TMP and peg are no longer sufficient to meet these requirements. They also have some negative effects, like the bubble problem. In order to achieve an acceptable treatment effect for the application, it is important to use different organic treating agents according to the different USES (applications) of titanium dioxide. In addition to the different USES for titanium dioxide, there are also differences in titanium dioxide application performance requirements.
Plastics - Requirements on titanium dioxide
1. High viscosity extrusion/dispersion lubricant
As plastic products become stronger and cheaper, they add more color filler. However, as the resin proportion decreases and compatibility between components becomes more challenging, it can cause the surface to be rough and uneven in color. Consider the colormasterbatch that is commonly used in plastics: it's made by extrusion of titanium dioxide and granulation after being kneaded with high temperature organic resins such as polyethylene wax or high-pressure polyester. It is necessary to use the least amount of carrier resin to moisten the most titanium dioxide possible in order to achieve a high-concentration white masterbatch. This will avoid low resin compatibility when applied. In order to produce masterbatches, titanium dioxide must have excellent wettability on the surface and excellent lubrication. If not, it is difficult to granulate or disperse.

2. Temperature/weather Resistance
Before processing or forming, the vast majority of plastics products, regardless of their type, processing method or resin, must be in high-temperature melt with titanium dioxide and additives. Processing temperatures for plastics are around 200 degrees, or higher. The decomposition of some components at this temperature will cause pigment migration, porosity and a serious impact on the physical strength and surface quality of plastic products. Each component of the formula should have excellent temperature resistance. For plastics used outdoors or in a healthy light environment (such plastic films, electrical appliances, etc.) UV resistance should also be taken into consideration. In PVC products, a stabilizer containing lead is added. This type of stabiliser is easily reacted with other active chemical substances at high temperature and produces black substances. Lead stabilizers cannot react with organic coating agents on titanium dioxide surfaces.

3. Dry Powder Fluidity/Moisture Resistant
As more and factories adopt continuous production line for plastics, raw materials related to it (like resins, fillers or pigments) are also metering continuously using transmission belts. Imagine that the flow rate of titanium dioxide dry is low. The powder will then get stuck in the belt of the transmission or block the screen hole. This can lead to titanium dioxide not being accurately measured or added smoothly.

Carbon-Coated Silicon Material: an Ideal Anode Material for Lithium Batteries

Problems Facing Silicon Carbon Material System

Silicon possesses an ultra-high theoretical capacity for lithium insertion, approximately ten times greater than carbon materials. It has many advantages, including a low price, abundant sources, and a platform that is similar to graphite. Silicon will, however, produce volume changes of >400% during the deintercalation process of lithium. This will lead to pulverization, loss of contact between the current collectors and the conductive agents, and rapid degradation of capacity. In addition, the SEI membrane on the silicon surface is unstable and severely limits the cycle life.
The lithium ions diffuse into the silicon particle, which reduces the active material's lithium insertion capability. Selecting nano-scale silicon particle can also reduce material powdering. This will improve capacity. Nanoparticles, however, are easily agglomerated, and they have little effect on the thickening SEI films. In the current silicon anode technologies, they are focusing on two key problems: "volume growth" and "conductivity", which occur during the charge-discharge process. As far as anodes are concerned, the carbon materials used in silicon anodes to form conductive and buffer layer are crucial.


The nanometerization process can enhance the performance of silicon anodes. To reduce the cost of manufacturing nano-silicon material and to stabilize the SEI film on the surface of silicon materials, a variety of materials with good intrinsic conductivity are used to combine with silicon. Carbon materials are among the materials that can both improve the conductivity on silicon-based anodes and stabilize the SEI films.

There is no carbon or silicon material that can simultaneously meet the needs of modern electronics for energy density and cycle lifetime. The fact that carbon is a member of the same chemical group as silicon, and has similar properties to both, makes it easy to recombine them. The composite material of silicon-carbon can be used to complement both the benefits and shortcomings of each material. It also allows for a material with a much higher gram and cycle capacity.

The reduction of particle size in the electrode material has the additional purpose of increasing the ionic rather than electronic conductivity. As the particle size is reduced, the diffusion path of lithium ions is also shortened. This allows the lithium ion to quickly participate in electrochemical reactions, during charge and discharge. For the enhancement of electronic conductivity there are two methods. One involves coatings of conductive material and the second is doping. This is done by producing mixed valences states to increase the intrinsic conductivity.

Carbon-Coated Silicone Material

Scientists developed a plan for using carbon to wrap silicone as a negative electrolyte material in lithium batteries. They did this by synthesizing the electrochemical characteristics of carbon and silica. In experiments, scientists found that silicon coated with carbon can boost the material's performance. Preparation methods for this material include hydrothermal method CVD, and coating carbon precursors to silicon particles. The array of nanowires were prepared by metal catalytically etching the silicon plate. They then coated the surface with carbon using carbon aerogel and Pyrolysis. The initial discharge capacity of this nanocomposite was 3,344mAh/g. After 40 cycles, the capacity was 1,326mAh/g. The material's excellent electrochemical performance is due to its good electronic conductivity, contact between silicon and carbon materials, and effective inhibition of volume expansion by the silicon materials.

The Development Prospects

The Carbon-coated Silicon material is an ideal anode material for lithium batteries. It combines high conductivity, stability and capacity of silicon with the advantages of carbon.

Catalyst Iron Carbide with Broad Application Prospects

Iron Carbide Features

Iron carbide has high conductivity and electrochemical performance. It is considered to be the next-generation of anode material for lithium-ion batteries. It is also characterized by high hardness and stability. This allows lithium-ion batteries be used in extreme conditions.

Transition Metal Carbide Nanostructures Attract Attention

The nanostructures of the transition metal carbides have received much attention in recent years. This is especially true for iron carbide nanomaterials due to their excellent stability, high catalytic efficiency, and good biocompatibility. Features: Has important applications in the fields such as nanomagnetism and Tropsch catalysis (Tropsch), electrochemical energy storage conversion, and medicine. However, the commonly used methods of preparation, such as the solid-phase reaction and sonochemical methods and sol-gel, are often agglomerated and have difficulty controlling phase.

Iron Carbide Catalyst: Application

Zhao Yujun and his team from Tianjin have made great progress using Fe5C2 catalysts in the DMO system to produce alcohol. The researchers developed an innovative hydrogen and mixed gas carbonization, and then obtained a relatively durable iron carbide catalyst mostly composed of Fe5C2 within a reaction atmospheric.

Further studies found that the DMO hydrogenation reaction route using Fe5C2 was different from that of copper-based catalysts, in part because Fe5C2 could selectively activate -OH on the intermediate product methylglycolate (MG), such that adding hydrogen produced methylacetate (MA) rather than ethylene glycol on copper-based cats. MA can be further hydrogenated on Fe5C2 with high selectivity to produce alcohol. Fe5C2 did not have significant CC bond-breaking activity. The higher reaction temperature (260 degrees Celsius) resulted in a 90% ethanol production, while the main by-products were MA. Fe5C2 catalysts are clearly superior to copper-based catalysts in terms of performance.

The Properties And Application of Nitinol

What is Nitinol
Nitinol alloy is a form memory alloy. It is a unique alloy that automatically returns to its original shape when heated at a specified temperature. It has an expansion rate of over 20% and a fatigue resistance up to 1*10 in the 7th order. The damping properties it offers are ten-times better than those of normal springs. It is an ideal material for applications in the medical field.

Memory alloy has a unique ability to remember its original shape. It also offers excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance.

Nitinol and its properties

Nickel-titanium is a binary metal alloy made of titanium and nickel. There are two distinct crystal phases due to changes in temperature or mechanical pressure: austenite and Martensite. The nickel-titanium phase transformation sequence is: parent phase (austenite), R phase, martensite phase. The R phase is cubic. Austenite is harder and cubic at higher temperatures (more important than the same temperature: the temperature where austenite begins) or when the load (external force from Deactivation) is removed. The shape of the austenite is stable. When temperatures are low (less Mf than the temperature at Mf where the martensite finishes) or when loaded (activated with an external force), martensite is formed. It is hexagonal in shape, repeatable and not stable.
Nitinol application:

Clinical Application of Nitinol Wire

1. It is used to align and level the teeth of patients as early as possible. Nitinol Archwires, with their superelasticity and shape-memory properties and lower stress/strain curves, are used in the first stage of treatment. The patient's discomfort is reduced significantly. MBT's straight wire correction technology uses heat-activated Nickel-Titanium alloy (HANT) archwire. The DEMON self-locking brace technology recommends heat-activated heat-activated Nitinol-Titanium from Omro. O-PAK technology recommends using super-elastic Nitinol 0.016 inch archwire for early leveling and alignment.

2. Nitinol extension and push springs: These springs are used for orthodontics. These springs are very elastic and can be used for orthodontic treatments to open the gap in between teeth, and to pull teeth into different directions. The nickel-titanium spiral spring can generate about 50g of force when it is extended by one millimeter. Nickel-titanium coil springs possess high elastic properties, and they can create a soft and stable pressure while under tension. The force attenuation of the coil springs is minimal. This makes them ideal for orthodontic forces that are required to move teeth in a clinical setting. Physiological requirements. Nitinol tension springs feature high elasticity with a small permanent deformation. Compared to stainless steel, the correction force released is about 3.5-4x greater. The patient feels a dull, lasting pain during orthodontic treatment. The duration of the follow-up, treatment, and cure are reduced. It is a great new orthodontic device.

Nitinol's excellent properties in terms of electrical, mechanical and thermal properties make it a popular choice in the semiconductor electronic packaging industry.

The Properties And Application of Molybdenum Carbide

What is Molybdenum Carbide (HTML0)?
Molybdenum Carbide has the chemical formula MoC. Its molecular weight 107.95.

The material is known for its high melting and hardness points, thermal and mechanical resistance, and corrosion resistance.

Molybdenum Carbide has a hexagonal gray crystal. It has a high melting and hardness point, as well as good mechanical and thermal stability. The melting temperature is 2692degC. It is insoluble in water, lye and sulfuric acid.
Molybdenum Carbide:

1. Molybdenum Alloy

TZM is the alloy with the highest strength and most comprehensive properties. The United States uses TZM for turbine disks, which account for 15 percent of the total molybdenum. In my country, we produce no fewer than 22 types of molybdenum material. This includes TZM molybdenum. Early 1990s, the output of my country in molybdenum alloys and molybdenum was around 200 tons.
The high mechanical properties are superior to pure Molybdenum and are used widely in the production of molds and other structural parts. In the early 20th century, my nation successfully produced them as thermally perforated seamless steel pipe plugs. The sintered molybdenum plugged made using powder metallurgy technology can reduce raw material consumption (50%) and improve the service life.

The seamless tube of molybdenum and rhenium (containing 50% Re), has excellent performance, and can be used close to the melting point. It can also be used to make the brackets, rings, grids, and other parts for thermowells or electron tube cathodes.

It is easier to work with molybdenum than tungsten. The plates, strips and foils can be used to make tubes, rods wires profiles etc. These are used to make electronic tubes (grids), electric light sources (support material), metal processing tool (die-casting dies, extrusion dies forging dies perforated plugs liquid metal screens), and turbine discs. Used in many components.

2. Alloying components of steel

Molybdenum is an alloying metal that, when combined with nickel, chromium and other elements, can help reduce the embrittlement of alloy steels. The use of molybdenum in high-speed alloys to replace the tungsten is a leading solution for the shortage in tungsten. Molybdenum, according to calculations has twice the capacity of tungsten. The steel that contains 18% tungsten is replaced by steel that contains 9% molybdenum. Molybdenum's role in stainless steel is to enhance corrosion resistance, strength and weldability. You can see that molybdenum has a major role to play in the steel sector.

3. Other apps

Molybdenum exhibits a very low vapour pressure when working at the pressure and temperature of the vacuum oven. Molybdenum is the material that causes the least contamination to the materials and workpieces inside the vacuum furnace.
Due to its high strength, molybdenum makes the ideal electrode in glass manufacturing. It is also the ideal processing equipment and electrode during rapid heating. Because molybdenum is chemically incompatible with most glass components, it will not produce harmful color changes due to the small amount of molybdenum that may be dissolved in a glass melting tank. As a heating electrode in a glass melt furnace, it can last up to 3 or 5 years.

4. Emerging applications

Molybdenum disilicide is a material which can be used to create an advanced composite to overcome the low ductility, and high oxidation problems.

Molybdenum Carbide has excellent properties in terms of electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. It is widely used as a composite material in the advanced composite field.
