Boron ceramic products
At present, boron carbide is the main basic material for neutron absorption and shielding materials commonly used in special equipment of nuclear industry. In order to improve neutron absorption ability, pure boron can be used to make shielding materials. After special production process, the formation of high purity boron dodecide, compared with similar boron carbide ceramic materials, under the same shielding and neutron absorption standards, has the advantages of lighter weight, smaller volume and so on.
In view of the urgent demand of nuclear engineering construction and nuclear power facilities for materials with good moderated absorption/shielding effect, light texture, small volume and radiation resistance, our company has cooperated with relevant scientific research institutions to develop new boron-aluminum based neutron protection composite materials. Through the repeated trials of our R&D staff, we have successfully prepared a variety of sizes and composition products. After testing, the material uniformity, crystallinity and density of the product have reached a high level, and the preparation process, mechanical properties and neutron slowing absorption properties have reached the relevant standards.
