Molybdenum Boride

Molybdenum Boride Powder is a gray or black powder with high hardness and high melting point, which can be prepared by various methods and is widely used in various fields such as cemented carbide, ceramics and electronic materials.

Properties

Chemical formula: MoB

Appearance: Usually presents gray or black powder.

Density: Approximately 8.77 g/cm³, its relatively high density allows it to provide good mass stability in some applications.

Hardness: High hardness, high on the Mohs hardness scale, comparable to some cemented carbides, which makes it an important application in the field of wear-resistant materials.

Melting point: high melting point, generally in 2000 ℃ above, high temperature stability is good, can be in the high temperature environment to maintain its physical and chemical properties, suitable for some of the high temperature performance of the material demanding occasions.

Stability: relatively stable chemical properties, not easy to chemical reaction with water, air and other common substances at room temperature. In the general chemical environment, Molybdenum Boride powder can maintain the stability of its chemical composition and structure, which is conducive to long-term storage and use.

Antioxidant: To a certain extent, it shows good antioxidant performance, when heated to a certain temperature in air, its surface will form a layer of oxidized film, which can prevent further oxidation, thus improving its service life under high-temperature oxidation conditions.

Applications

Cemented carbide additives: Since Molybdenum Boride powder has high hardness and good wear resistance, adding it to cemented carbide as an additive can significantly improve the hardness, wear resistance and cutting performance of cemented carbide.
