FAQ：

Q1:

What is boron powder? 

Boron powder is a powdered substance made from boron. It is a black or silver-gray solid with various excellent properties, such as flame retardant, antibacterial, anti-corrosion, toughening, etc. Boron powder can be used in medicine, agriculture, food, metallurgy, synthesis, ceramics, glass, cement, graphite, and other fields, showing its versatility and wide applicability.

Q2:

Does boron powder come in granular form? 

Yes, boron powder comes in granular form. These particles typically range in size from 5 to 20 microns and are pale brown to grayish black in appearance. The shape of the particles can be mainly determined by the production method of the powder and the crystalline geometry of the molecular or atomic arrangement of the substance. The shape of the particles significantly affects the fluidity, bulk density, and gas permeability of the powder, which in turn affects the compatibility and sintering strength.

Q3:

What is the role of boron powder? 

Enhance plant stress resistance: boron is one of the important elements in plant growth and can enhance plant photosynthesis and improve plant immunity and stress resistance. Therefore, in agriculture, boron powder can be used as a plant nutrient to improve the yield and quality of crops.

Application in the glass industry: Boric acid and borate are important components of glass composition, which can improve the heat resistance, shock resistance, and corrosion resistance of glass. Therefore, boron powder is widely used in the glass industry to make glass products with high strength, high durability, and chemical erosion resistance, such as glass fiber, glass steel, and so on. Applications in the electronics industry: Borides are compounds with semiconductor properties widely used in the electronics industry. Boron powder can manufacture high-brightness LED light sources, high-performance batteries, and other electronic devices.

Q4：

How to measure the purity of boron powder? 

PH determination method:

Take a certain amount of boron powder and add appropriate water to moisten.

Add a certain proportion of concentrated nitric acid, and wait until the reaction is no yellow smoke.

The solution is heated and boiled for a certain amount of time and then cooled to room temperature.

Add a certain proportion of water, adjust the pH with hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide, and then titration, record the pH value.

If the pH is less than the value of the titration, repeat the above steps until the pH is equal.

The purity of boron powder can be determined by this method. However, please note that the pH method is more complicated and requires careful operation.

Q5：

What is a boron powder shaker? 

A boron powder vibrating screen is a solid screening equipment specially used for screening boron powder. It is composed of a screen body, vibration motor, frame, spring seat, etc.; through the vibration force generated by the vibration motor, the boron powder is reciprocated on the screen body, and then the boron powder is stratified, filtered, dust removal and other operations. The vibration motor vibrates the screen surface by exciting the vibration force so that the boron powder moves along the screen surface in a spiral shape and is graded through the screen with different pore sizes. Finally, the required particle size is obtained.
