I-Boron Carbide
I-Boron Carbide (B4C), eyaziwa nangokuthi idayimane elimnyama, enobulukhuni be-Vickers be>30 GPa, iyinto yesithathu enzima kakhulu ngemva kwedayimane ne-cubic boron nitride. I-Boron carbide ine-cross section ephezulu yokumuncwa kwama-neutron (okungukuthi izakhiwo zokuvikela ezinhle kuma-neutron), ukuzinza emisebeni ye-ionizing kanye namakhemikhali amaningi. Kuyinto efanelekile yezinhlelo zokusebenza eziningi zokusebenza okuphezulu ngenxa yenhlanganisela ekhangayo yezakhiwo. Ukuqina kwayo okuvelele kuyenza ibe impushana ehuquzelayo efanelekile yokugenca, ukupholisha kanye nokusika indiza yamanzi yezinsimbi nezitsha zobumba.
I-Boron carbide iyimpahla ebalulekile enamandla angasindi namandla amakhulu emishini. Imikhiqizo ye-UrbanMines inokuhlanzeka okuphezulu nezintengo ezincintisanayo. Siphinde sibe nolwazi oluningi ekuhlinzekeni uhla lwemikhiqizo ye-B4C. Siyethemba ukuthi singakunikeza izeluleko eziwusizo futhi sikunikeze ukuqonda okungcono kwe-boron carbide kanye nokusetshenziswa kwayo okuhlukahlukene.
