Calcium boride is used as an electrode (cathode) material and n-type thermoelectric materials. It is used to make boron- alloyed steel, as a deoxidation agent in the production of oxygen-free copper. It is further used as an antioxidant in carbon bonded refractories. It acts as a new material which

Hafnium boride is used in wear resistant coatings. It is also employed as a nuclear reactor control rod. Furthermore, it is used in hypervelocity re-entry vehicles like ICBM heat shields or aerodynamic leading-edges. It is useful in the preparation of high temperature composites in conjunction with

Used as a cathode material in aluminum smelting and can be shaped by electrical discharge machining. Specialized applications in such areas as impact resistant armor, cutting tools, crucibles, neutron absorbers and wear resistant coatings.

Zirconium Boride is used as an aerospace refractory, in cutting tools, and to protect thermocouple tubes. It is also acts as an antioxidant in carbon-bonded refractory ceramics, neutron absorber. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.

Magnesium Boride exhibits super conducting properties and utilized in MRI superconducting magnet, which is a closed-loop cryocooler. It is used as propellants, pyrotechnics and explosives. It can be used as high temperature boron-based thermoelectric materials. It is also used in superconducting tra
