Aluminum Magnesium Boride BAM AlMgB14 Powder

About AlMgB14 alloy powder:

Aluminum magnesium boride or aluminum magnesium boride, 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; 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.

How is AlMgB14 alloy Powder Produced?

AlMgB14 aluminum magnesium boride material has a better anti-wear property than diamond and is a new type of anti-degradation material. AlMgB14 aluminum magnesium boride density 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 alloy at temperatures up to 1300 °C, and has high thermal stability.

AlMgB14 aluminum magnesium boride has a much higher conductivity than other conventional super hard materials and is equivalent to the conductivity of polysilicon. The most attractive aspect 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 wearable,

Traditional fields such as protective coatings and cutting equipment manufacturing can also be widely used in advanced scientific fields such as thermoelectric devices, photodetectors, neutron masks, micro machines, and aerospace key components.

Applications of AlMgB14 alloy Powder:

BAM is commercially available, and research is being conducted for more potential applications. For example, the pump's pistons, seals, and vanes 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 aluminum magnesium boride coating is also used on cutting tools. The reduced friction will reduce the force required to cut the object, extend tool life, and may increase cutting speed. It has been found that only 2-3 microns thick coating can increase efficiency and reduce cutting tool wear.

Ternary Boride AlMgB14 alloy powder is one of the research hotspots in the field of superhard materials in the world. It has recently attracted widespread attention from scholars at home and abroad. Unlike traditional metastable superhard materials such as diamond and cubic boron nitride, AlMgB14 superhard materials are equilibrium materials with high hardness, low density, low coefficient of friction, high thermal stability, and good thermoelectric properties.

Storage Condition of AlMgB14 Aluminum Magnesium Boride Powder:

The damp reunion will affect AlMgB14 aluminum magnesium boride dispersion performance and using effects. Therefore, AlMgB14 aluminum magnesium boride powder should be sealed in vacuum packing and stored in a cool and dry room, and the AlMgB14 aluminum magnesium boride can not be exposed to air. In addition, the AlMgB14 powder should be avoided under stress.
