Boron Powder can also be called monomer boron. Both the mass and volume calorific values are high for boron. Boron is a gray-black or light brown powder with active chemical properties. However, it is not stable at normal room temperature and will oxidize when temperatures reach 300 degrees Celsius.
Boron Powder Properties
Boron is either a silver-gray or black solid. Crystal boron, which is black in color, has the second highest hardness of diamonds and a brittle texture. Borax is able to melt metals oxides. It’s also used as a flux for welding.
Boron’s weight is only second to beryllium in terms of volumetric heat. Boron is slightly soluble but not soluble in water. Amorphous boron powder is explosive and chemically reactive.
Elemental Boron is a powdery black or dark brown color. The diboron film that forms when boron is oxidized in air stops the internal boron oxidizing. Boron powder is resistant to hydrochloric and hydrofluoric aqueous acids and can react with fluorine.

Boron Powder Applications
Boron is used for metal smelting as well as electronic product manufacture, ceramic production, chemical industry, nuclear industry, and more. These are the applications of boron:
1. Boron powders can be used as a source of raw materials to produce boron fibres and are important for producing high purity boron halid.
2. Boron compound is used as a gas absorber in the smelting process of special alloyed steels or molten iron;
3. Boron powder is used in rocket fuel to provide high energy.
4. The electronic industry uses a powdered form of Boron as the ignition electrode for the ignition tubes;
5. Boron can be used to replace precious metals.
6. Boron is used in a variety of applications, including the control rods for atomic reactors and as a material to protect atomic energy industries.
