Product Description

Boron, an element with the symbol B and atomic number 5, is one of the few elements that demonstrate remarkable features and find applications in a wide range of fields. It occurs mixed with other compounds in the Earth's crust and is notable for its extreme hardness, and relatively low abundance. Boron is a metalloid hence it owes its intermediate properties to both metals and non-metals. The unique aspect of this element lies in its ability to form strong covalent bonds, which in turn contributes to its high melting point and hardness. Boron has a crystalline structure, black, shiny, and hard like diamond which is the reason why it can be used in industrial fields where the material needs to be very strong and resilient. Boron is widely employed in glass and fiberglass manufacturing, as a micronutrient in agriculture fertilizers, and as a high-tech material boron carbide and boron nitride due to their hardness and thermal properties.
