Iron Boron Alloy (FeB20C0.5, FeB18C0.5)

Product Overview
Iron Boron Alloy (FeB) is an alloy composed of iron and boron, known for its excellent mechanical properties, friction resistance, and corrosion resistance. The main components of the alloy are FeB and Fe₂B, which combine the high hardness of ceramics with the electrical conductivity of metals. Iron boride coatings are widely used to enhance the wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance of materials. Iron boron alloys are commonly used in steelmaking, casting, and hardening coating applications.

Product Features

• High Hardness:Iron boron alloys are harder than conventional iron but tend to be more brittle.
• Excellent Friction Properties:Demonstrates outstanding wear resistance during friction, making it ideal for high-wear applications.
• Corrosion Resistance:The iron boride coating excels in corrosion resistance, protecting underlying materials from environmental damage.
• Good Thermal and Electrical Conductivity:Iron boride has excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, beneficial in various industrial processes.
• Ease of Processing:Compared to ceramic or metal-ceramic materials, iron-based materials are more cost-effective to process and are easier to manufacture and handle.

Applications

• Steelmaking and Casting Industries:Used as a boronizing agent to enhance the properties of steel and cast iron.
