Boron Carbide (B4C), yomwe imadziwikanso kuti diamondi yakuda, yokhala ndi kuuma kwa Vickers> 30 GPa, ndi chinthu chachitatu cholimba kwambiri pambuyo pa diamondi ndi kiyubiki boron nitride. Boron carbide ili ndi gawo lalikulu la kuyamwa kwa ma neutroni (mwachitsanzo, chitetezo chabwino ku ma neutroni), kukhazikika kwa radiation ya ionizing ndi mankhwala ambiri. Ndizinthu zoyenera zogwirira ntchito zambiri zapamwamba chifukwa cha kuphatikiza kwake kokongola kwa katundu. Kuuma kwake kwapadera kumapangitsa kuti ikhale ufa wonyezimira wokwanira kupukuta, kupukuta ndi kudula jeti lamadzi lazitsulo ndi zitsulo.
Boron carbide ndi chinthu chofunikira chokhala ndi zopepuka komanso mphamvu zamakina. Zogulitsa za UrbanMines zili ndi chiyero chokwera komanso mitengo yampikisano. Timakhalanso ndi luso lambiri popereka zinthu zosiyanasiyana za B4C. Tikukhulupirira kuti titha kupereka upangiri wothandiza ndikukupatsani kumvetsetsa bwino kwa boron carbide ndi ntchito zake zosiyanasiyana.
