Brief Introduction of AlMgB14 Alloy Powder

Product name: BAM Powder Aluminum Magnesium Boride AlMgB14 Alloy Powder

Description of AlMgB14 Alloy Powder

Aluminum boride or Al3Mg3B56, commonly known as BAM, is a compound of aluminum, magnesium, and boron. Although its nominal formula is AlMgB14, its chemical composition is closer to Al0.75Mg0.75B14. It is a highly wear-resistant ceramic alloy with an extremely low sliding friction coefficient, reaching a record value of 0.04 in the unlubricated AlMgB14-TiB2 composite material, and a record value of 0.02 in the lubricated AlMgB14-TiB2 composite material. BAM was first reported in 1970. It has an orthogonal structure and each unit cell has four icosahedral B12 units. The thermal expansion coefficient of this super hard material is comparable to other widely used materials such as steel and concrete.

AlMgB14 alloy powder aluminum-magnesium boride material has better wear resistance than diamond and is a new type of anti-degradation material. The density of AlMgB14 is only 2.66 g/cm3, which is much lower than other superhard materials (such as diamond and cubic boron nitride), and does not react with carbon steel, stainless steel or titanium alloys at temperatures up to 1300°C, and has Higher thermal stability.

The conductivity of AlMgB14 aluminum-magnesium boride is much higher than that of other conventional superhard materials, which is basically equivalent to that of polysilicon. The most attractive part of AlMgB14 is its low price, which is 5 to 10 times lower than diamond and cubic boron nitride. These excellent properties make AlMgB14 not only wear-resistant, protective coatings and cutting equipment manufacturing and other traditional fields, but also can be widely used in advanced scientific fields such as thermoelectric devices, photodetectors, neutron masks, micromachines, and key aerospace components.

Application of AlMgB14 Alloy Powder

AlMgB14 alloy powder has many potential applications. For example, the pistons, seals and vanes on the pump can be coated with BAM or BAM + TiB2 to reduce friction between parts and increase wear resistance. The reduction in friction will reduce energy consumption. BAM can also be coated on cutting tools. The reduced friction will reduce the force required to cut the object, extend the life of the tool, and increase the cutting speed. It has been found that a coating of only 2-3 microns thick can increase efficiency and reduce tool wear.

Ternary boride AlMgB14 alloy powder is one of the research hotspots in the field of superhard materials in the world, and it has received extensive attention from domestic and foreign scholars in recent years. Different from traditional metastable superhard materials such as diamond and cubic boron nitride, AlMgB14 superhard material is a balanced material with high hardness, low density, low friction coefficient, high thermal stability and good thermoelectric properties.
