Iron Boride ( Fe2B ) - Properties and Applications

Feb 5 2004

Background

Iron boride (Fe₂B) takes the form of a grey powder that is insoluble in water.

Iron borides (Fe₂B and FeB) are also formed during the boriding of steel. The iron boride formed on the surface of the steel usually has good adherence and impact strength.

Key Properties

Property	Value
Density (g/cm³)	7.15
Melting Point (°C)	13-1500

Applications

Iron boride is used in the production of borated steels and borated stainless steels.
