Calcium Boride Chemical Formula
CaB6 is an important material. CaB6 is an important chemical material because of its high conductivity, chemical stability, and melting point.
Calcium boride powder
This is a dense, black, glossy powder. It has a typical cube structure with six metal borides, six boron and six calcium atoms in octahedral unit.
CaB6
It has been studied in the past because of its unique physical properties. These include superconductivity. CaB6 has a remarkable ferromagnetism. It is a rare phenomenon that occurs at unexpectedly low magnetic moments and high temperatures. 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 preparing the sample.
CaB6
Calcium Boride
Insoluble in H2O (water), MeOH(methanol), EtOH(ethanol), and slowly dissolves in acids. The microhardness for pure crystals is 27 GPa. Knoop's hardness is 2660 kg/mm2, and the Young modulus 379 GPa.
CaB6 is an electronic semiconductor
With an estimated energy gap of 1.0 eV. Many CaB6 sample's low semi-metallic resistance can be explained by the unintentional contamination of impurities, and possibly non-stoichiometry.

Performance of Calcium Hexaboride CaB6:
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.
What is
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 or calcium oxidide and boron occurs at 1000degC.
Ca + 6B - CaB6
Ca(OH)2 and boron react under vacuum at 1700degC.
Ca(OH)2 + 7B-CaB6 + BO(g)+ H2O(g)
The reaction between boron carbide and calcium carbonate under vacuum is above 1400degC.
CaO and h3BO3 react when Mg reaches 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).

Calcium Hexaboride CaB6:
1. Use as an additive containing boron for dolomite or magnesium dolomite carbon refractories. It helps to resist oxidation and erosion, and increases the thermal strength.
2. It is used to deoxidize and degas highly conductive red cupron in order to increase its conductivity and durability.
3. Use as a new material in the nuclear sector to prevent neutrons.
4. It is used as a type of new semiconductor material for spin-electronic components that have a temperature up to 900K.
5. Raw material used to manufacture boron trichloride (BCl3) or amorphous boran.
6. It is used as a source of raw material to manufacture high-purity metals (TiB2, ZrB2, HFB2, etc.). Used as a raw materials for the manufacture of high-purity metals borides (TiB2,ZrB2,HfB2,etc.) ).
7. It is used to make a mixture of hexagonal boron and calcium-boron catalyst nitride. Also, it can be used to produce cubic crystal boron with high performance.
