Calcium hexaboride is also known as calcium boride. It has the chemical formula of CaB6. It is important due to the high electrical conductivity of this material, as well as its hardness, chemical stability and melting point. Purity: 99.5%

The following is a list of the most recent articles about Calcium Hexaboride CaB6 Powder:
Calcium hexaboride The following are some examples of how to use Calcium Boride Calcium and Boron is a chemical compound. Calcium Boride Chemical Formula CaB6 is an important material. CaB6 is an important chemical material because of its high conductivity, chemical stability, and melting point. Calcium boride powder This is a dense, black, glossy powder. It has a typical cube structure with six metal borides, six boron and six calcium atoms in octahedral unit.
CaB6 It has been studied in the past because of its unique physical properties. These include superconductivity. CaB6 has a remarkable ferromagnetism. It is a rare phenomenon that occurs at unexpectedly low magnetic moments and high temperatures. This high temperature ferromagnetism may be caused by the ferromagnetic phases of dilute electron gases, a linkage to a presumed excitonic condition in calcium boreide, or impurities externally on the surface. Iron and nickel impurities are possible, which probably come from the impurities of the boron that was used to prepare the specimen.
CaB6 Calcium Boride Insoluble in water, MeOH (methanol) and EtOH(ethanol), it dissolves slowly in acid. It has a microhardness (27 GPa), Knoop hardness (2600 kg/mm2), Young modulus (379 GPa) and an electrical resistivity greater than 2*1010 O*m. CaB6 is an electronic semiconductor With an estimated energy gap of 1.0 eV. Many CaB6 sample's low semi-metallic resistance can be explained by the unintentional contamination of impurities, and possibly non-stoichiometry.

Performance of Calcium Hexaboride CaB6:

It is also characterized by high melting points and hardness. Physically and chemically, it is stable. CaB6 sub-microns are not easily oxidized when they are calcined. CaB6 does not dissolve in hydrochloric or sulfuric acids. Nitric acid is the only way to remove impurities.

What is Calcium Hexaboride CaB6 Powder ?
One of the major reactions of industrial production:
CaO + B2O3 + 10 mg-CaB6 + MgO
CaB6 powder can be made in a variety of ways.

The reaction between calcium or calcium oxidide and boron occurs at 1000degC.
Ca + 6B-CaB6
Ca(OH)2 and boron react under vacuum at 1700degC.
Ca(OH)2 + 7B-CaB6 + BO(g)+ H2O(g)
The reaction of calcium carbide and boron carbide under vacuum above 1400degC.
CaO and h3BO3 react when Mg reaches 1100degC.
Synthesis low temperature (500degC).
CaCl2 + 6NaBH4-CaB6 + 2NaCl + 12H2 + 4Na
In the end, material quality was poor.

The CaB6 is then recrystallized by zone melting to obtain pure CaB6 crystals for cathode materials. The growth rate is typically 30 cm/h and the size of the crystals is 1x10 cm.
In the presence of Ni catalyst, single crystal CaB6 Nanowires can be made by pyrolyzing Diborane (B2H6) onto calcium oxide (CaO).
