High density crystalline boron prepared by hot isostatic pressing in refractory metal containers
Patent Application
·
OSTI ID:10104542
Boron powder is hot isostatically pressed in a refractory metal container to produce a solid boron monolith with a bulk density at least 2.22 g/cc and up to greater than 2.34 g/cc. The refractory metal container is formed of tantalum, niobium, tungsten, molybdenum or alloys thereof in the form of a canister or alternatively plasma sprayed or chemical vapor deposited onto a powder compact. Hot isostatic pressing at 1800{degrees}C and 30 KSI (206.8 MPa) argon pressure for four hour produces a bulk density of 2.34 g/cc. Complex shapes can be made.
