Combustion synthesis of amorphous boron in a very short term magnesiothermic reduction

What is Amorphous Boron?
The ever-increasing use of amorphous boron powder in high-energy materials and allied compositions has created frequent demand for the analysis of boron. The presence of nitrogen in an inert gas used during the synthesis of ABP and from trapped air during the process results in the formation of boron nitride in a significant quantity (up to 4%). Hence, an adequate analytical method for the selective estimation of nitride content has been established. Conventionally, ABP is analyzed by fusion with sodium carbonate followed by total B-content estimation from inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). There needs to be more than this method of B estimation using ICP-AES to differentiate B from ABP and BN, and an alternative new analytical method was developed for the rapid and direct estimation of BN in ABP. Due to its substantial chemical inertness, the decomposition of BN is extremely difficult. Therefore the digestion was attempted with several acids and acid mixtures using microwave digestion in a closed vessel at various temperatures.
Synthesis of nano-sized amorphous boron powders through active dilution self-propagating high-temperature synthesis method
Abstract Nanosized amorphous boron powders were synthesized by active dilution self-propagating high-temperature synthesis method at temperatures ranging from 700 °C to 850 °C in an SHS furnace using Mg, B 2 O 3, and KBH 4 as raw materials. Samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, Laser particle size analyzer, Fourier transforms infrared spectra, X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy , scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission TEM. The effects of the endothermic reaction rate, the possible chemical reaction mechanism, and the functional dilution model for the product synthesis were also discussed.

Combustion synthesis of amorphous boron in a very-short-term magnesiothermic reduction
Nanosized amorphous boron powder was produced using mechanochemistry via a magnesiothermic reduction in an Mg/B2O3 system. High-energy ball milling was used to induce a mechanically induced self-sustaining reaction. Under severe milling conditions, it was found that the ignition time for boron formation was only about 27 min of milling. In this study, the construction of boron and its amorphous nature is demonstrated by various characterizations.
