Boron filaments

It also has lubricating properties similar to graphite. The hydrides are easily oxidized with considerable energy liberation, and have been studied for use as rocket fuels. Demand is increasing for boron filaments, a high-strength, lightweight material chiefly employed for advanced aerospace structures. [Pg.14]

Boron filaments are formed by the chemical vapor deposition of boron trichloride on tungsten wire. High performance reinforcing boron fibers are available from 10—20 mm in diameter. These are used mainly in epoxy resins and aluminum and titanium. Commercial uses include golf club shafts, tennis and squash racquets, and fishing rods. The primary use is in the aerospace industry. [Pg.184]

Boron Trichloride. Approximately 75—95% of the BCl consumed iu the United States is used to prepare boron filaments by CVD (7). These high performance fibers are used to reinforce composite materials (qv) made from epoxy resius and metals (Al, Ti). The principal markets for such composites are aerospace industries and sports equipment manufacturers. [Pg.224]

Graphite is an excellent but expensive reinforcement for plastics. Aramid (aromatic polyamide), polyester (polyethylene terephthalate PET), and boron filaments are also used as reinforcements for polymers. [Pg.125]

Boron in high modulus and strength properties is available with this type of fiber. A vapor deposition process is the principal method to produce boron filaments, using /2 mil tungsten wire as a plating substrate. [Pg.463]
