Abstract:Neodymium hexaboride (NdB6) is an important rare‐earth hexaboride material that has many structural and functional applications in advanced technologies. This paper presents the results on experimental studies of synthesis, densification, microstructural characterization, and mechanical properties of NdB6. Single‐phase NdB6 powder was obtained by the carbothermic reduction of Nd2O3 and B4C at optimized conditions and charge composition. Densification of NdB6 powders was carried out by pressureless sintering an… Show more
