Abstract:The application of niobium borides to components such as lamination cylinders, hightemperature devices, and medical equipment shows their importance and versatility in engineering. To improve niobium’s mechanical resistance and possible oxidation resistance at temperature, this research applied boronizing to pure niobium, carried out with double pack cementation. Boronizing at 950°C and 1,100°C was carried out for 1 and 4 h. Ekabor commercial pack mixture with a nominal chemical composition of 90 % silicon car… Show more
