What is Hafnium Diboride HfB2 Powder?
Recently, covid 19 outbreak spreads in Shanghai, China. There are more than 25,000 new asymptomatic domestic infections every day. China is implementing a dynamic zero-out policy. A leading respiratory expert said the key to COVID-19 prevention and control is to minimize transmission and fatality rate. Omicron has a low case fatality rate but is highly transmissible and can still claim many lives in large outbreaks. "Total openness is not applicable in China. For China, we should keep to the dynamic zero-out and gradually open up."
However, "dynamic zero clearance" is not the pursuit of complete "zero infection". As the Novel Coronavirus has its own uniqueness and strong concealment, there may be no way to prevent the detection of cases at present, but rapid detection and prompt treatment must be carried out, as soon as one case is found, one case will be dealt with.
The situation in Shanghai is serious. As the financial center of China, Shanghai is a very important city, and the outbreak of the epidemic in Shanghai will put a great impact on China's economy. The current task is to contain the spread of the epidemic as soon as possible, to achieve social zero so that Shanghai's life and economy quickly return to normal.
As China plays an important role in the global supply chain, the outbreak will have a significant impact on the supply and prices of many HfB2 Powder.
Introduction to Hafnium Diboride HfB2 Powder
Hafnium diboride or HfB2 is a gray-black metallic luster crystal. Its crystal structure belongs to the hexagonal system.
Physicochemical Properties of Hafnium Diboride HfB2 Powder
As an excellent high-temperature ceramic material, HfB2 has a high melting point (3380℃). It has high purity, small particle size, uniform distribution, large specific surface area, high surface activity, low loose density, high conductivity, and stable chemical properties. At room temperature, hafnium diboride reacts almost completely with all chemical reagents except HF.

Applications of Hafnium Diboride HfB2 Powder
Hafnium diboride is characterized by high hardness, high modulus, high thermal conductivity, and high electrical conductivity. Mainly used in high-temperature ceramics, high-speed aircraft nose cones and aviation, aerospace, and other fields. It is a potential candidate material for high-temperature ceramics and is often used as an ablative material in the high-temperature oxidation environment.
What is Ultra-High-Temperature Ceramics (UHTCs)?
Ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTC) are a class of refractory with excellent stability at temperatures in excess of 2000 °C and are being investigated as possible materials for thermal protection systems (TPS), coatings for materials that withstand high temperatures, and materials for bulk materials heating elements.
Beginning in the early 1960s, the need for high-temperature materials from the emerging aerospace industry prompted the AIR Force Materials Laboratory to fund the development of a new material that could withstand the environments of proposed hypersonic aircraft such as the Boeing X-. Through a systematic study of the fire resistance of binary ceramics, they found that the early transition metals borides, carbides and nitrides had surprisingly high thermal conductivity, oxidation resistance, and reasonable mechanical strength. Among them, ZrB2 and HfB2 of the composites containing about 20% volume SiC have the best performance.
Broadly speaking, UHTC is a boride, carbide, nitride and oxide of early transition metals. Current efforts focus on heavy early transition metal borides, such as hafnium diboride (HfB2) and zirconium diboride (ZrB2). Other UHTC being investigated for TPS applications include hafnium nitride (HfN), zirconium nitride (ZrN), titanium carbide (TiC), titanium nitride (TiN), thorium dioxide (ThO2), Tantalum carbide (TaC) and related composites.
Diborides tend to have higher thermal conductivity but lower melting points than carbides and nitrides, which gives them good thermal shock resistance and makes them ideal for many high-temperature thermal applications.
