Chemical formula and elemental valence: The chemical formula of W₂B₅ indicates that the compound consists of two elements, tungsten (W) and boron (B).
Crystal structure type: Tungsten Boride has a complex crystal structure and belongs to the tetragonal crystal system.
Appearance and morphology: It appears black or dark grey.
Density value: 13 – 14 g/cm³.
Hardness properties: Hardness around 8 – 9, hardness values close to diamond.
Transistors and integrated circuits: The semiconducting properties of W2B5 make it potentially useful in the field of transistors and integrated circuits.
Resistive materials: Because Tungsten Boride resistance changes significantly with temperature, it can be used as a temperature-sensitive resistor (thermistor) material. In electronic devices, thermistors are used for functions such as temperature measurement, temperature compensation, and over-temperature protection.
Light modulation materials: The light absorption and reflection properties of W₂B₅ allow it to be used as a light modulation material. In the field of optical communications, it can be used to manufacture optical switches, optical attenuators and other optoelectronic devices, which can be used to regulate the light path on and off or the intensity of light by changing the optical or electrical signals.
Cutting tools and mould coatings: W₂B₅’s high hardness and chemical stability make it suitable for manufacturing cutting tools and mould coatings.
VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
