Boron carbide is a compound that contains boron and carbon, especially B4C; an extremely hard, non-metallic, black crystalline compound or solid solution. Only diamond is harder. In addition to its hardness property, boron carbide has the physical properties of corrosion resistance, heat strength, low specific gravity and high elastic modulus. It is used as an abrasive, neutron absorber for nuclear reactors, and as an alloying agent in composite structural materials.
