Title: | Fine Zirconium Diboride Powder by SHS |
Focus Area: | Synthesis of Zirconium Diboride Powder |
Patent: | IN244014 |
Social Benefits: | The synthesis time is only 5 minutes, It is economical as it uses low cost raw materials and does not require high temperature furnaces, Easy to scale up.Produced powder has Purity: >95%, Particle sizes: 200 nm -2 pm, Owing to the high cooling rates, high defect concentrations and non equilibrium structures exist in the SHS produced materials, resulting in more reactive, metastable and thus more sinterable products. |
