General properties & features: boron carbide ceramic powder is one of the hardest materials known, ranking third behind diamond and cubic boron nitride. It is the hardest material produced in tonnage quantities. It has the following properties and features: high purity, small particle diameters with an uniform distribution, low loose loading density, excellent mechanic, thermal, electrical and chemical properties, high abrasion resistance, high surface activity, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, low thermal conductivity, high modulus of elasticity. It is ideal for a wide variety of applications.

Applications
1) The following devices can be manufactured from it: wear resistance materials, cutting tools, ceramic tooling dies, moulds, horniness alloys, ceramics, wafer slicing machines. It can be used in metallurgical, petroleum & chemical industry, mechanical industry etc., B4C nanoparticle coating on the surface of nozzles, tools, models or functional components, grinding, lapping and polishing with performances of wear resistance, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance.
2) nano boron carbide powder can used in the transparent materials.
3) New nucleating/refining or sintering agents in metals or alloys or ceramic or plastic for smaller grain
size with improved mechanical properties etc
4) Nuclear: Neutron absorbing products for nuclear technology.
