Boron and metal borides
JSC "UNICHIM & EP" being the only manufacturer in Russia and CIS have an exceptional expertise in a production of an elemental and crystalline boron and a wide range of metal borides serving a various industries with these demanded materials.
Amorphous boron is commonly used in pyrotechnics (airbag igniters, flares, propellants), explosives, and advanced ceramics, since crystalline boron is intended for Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets, refractory borides, as well as neutron shielding application in nuclear industry.
Metal borides, having an outstanding hardness, chemical, and thermal resistance properties are highly demanded in various industries. These high-performance materials can be used in high-temperature furnaces, turbine blades, evaporation boats, armor plates, etc.
