APPLICATIONS

  • A black - brown color powder used primarily for its thermal properties.
  • Corrosion inhibition: Boron compounds produced with boron nanopowders make it useful in anti-freeze, brake fluids, hydrolic systems, and other applications where ferrous materials need protection against corrosion.
  • Abrasive: boron can serve as a rugged, highly abrasive surface for any number of purposes. Combined with its thermal properties, this makes it highly effective for high speed cutting and similar tasks.
  • Photoelectric applications: Boron powder offers unique applications in photography, tanning, electrolytic condensation, fuel cells, and a host of other photoelectric fields.
  • Biocide: Borates in general work to kill a variety of insects and similar pests through simple physical destruction, making them one of the most universally effective pest control options.
  • Ignition: The thermal properties of boron powder make it an excellent ignition aid for any number of applications. This sees it used in charcoal briquettes, fuels, torches, and countless other applications.
