High Purity Calcium Hexaboride CaB6 Powder CAS 12007-99-7, 99%

The compound calcium hexaboride, also known as calcium boride or calcium hexaboride, is composed of calcium and boran with the chemical formula CAB6. It is a valuable material because of its high electrical conductivity. 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. Chemical Formula of Calcium Boride CaB6 is an important material. CaB6 is a material of importance due to its high conductivity. Calcium boride powder This is a dense, black, glossy powder. It is composed of a cubic structure with six boron and six calcium atoms in each octahedral unit.
CaB6 It has been studied in the past because of its unique physical properties. These include superconductivity. CaB6 has a remarkable ferromagnetism. This occurs unexpectedly at high temperatures (600K) with a low magnetization moment. 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 sample surface. Iron and nickel impurities are possible, which probably come from the impurities of the boron used in the preparation of the sample.
CaB6 Calcium Boride Insoluble in H2O (water), MeOH(methanol), EtOH(ethanol) and slowly dissolves in acids. Its microhardness, Knoop-hardness, Young modulus, and electrical resistance are all 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 attributed to unintentional contamination due to impurities, and possibly non-stoichiometry.

Product Performance of CaB6 Calcium Hexaboride Powder

It is also characterized by high melting points and hardness. Its chemical and physical properties are very 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.


How do you pronounce 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 oxide or calcium and boron occurs at temperatures of 1000 degrees Celsius.
Ca + 6B - CaB6
Ca(OH2)2 and boron react under vacuum at 1700degC.
Ca(OH)2 + 7B-CaB6 + BO(g)+ H2O(g)
The reaction of boron carbide and calcium carbonate under vacuum above 1400degC.
CaO & H3BO3 reacts with Mg up to 1100degC
Low temperature (500degC ) Synthesis
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).
