*B4C Sandblasting nozzle

Common Applications:
  • Armor & Ballistic Protection (Body armor, vehicle plating, helicopter armor)
  • Industrial Wear Parts (Nozzles, bearings, blasting nozzles, cutting tools)
  • Nuclear Industry (Neutron absorbers, control rods, radiation shielding)
  • Abrasive & Lapping Media (High-precision polishing applications)
  • Aerospace & Defense (Lightweight armor, UAV components)


What is Boron Carbide?

Boron carbide (B₄C) is one of the hardest known materials, ranking just below diamond and cubic boron nitride. This advanced ceramic offers an exceptional combination of lightweight properties, extreme hardness, and outstanding resistance to wear and corrosion, making it ideal for high-performance industrial, defense, and aerospace applications.

Key Advantages of Our B₄C Ceramics:

✔ Exceptional Hardness (≥ 9.5 Mohs) – Superior wear resistance for abrasive environments.

✔ Lightweight Yet Strong – Significantly lighter than steel or tungsten carbide with high compressive strength.

✔ Neutron Absorption Capability – Ideal for nuclear shielding and control rod applications.

✔ High-Temperature Stability – Maintains performance in extreme thermal conditions (up to 2200°C in inert atmospheres).

✔ Chemical Resistance – Resists acids, alkalis, and molten metals.
