Hafnium diboride is a class of ultra-high-temperature ceramics. This type of ceramic is composed of hafnium and boron. It has a melting temperature of about 3100 ?C. The ceramic offers high thermal and electrical conductivity. Hafnium diboride is a grey and metallic compound. It is mixed with carbon, boron, silicon carbide, or nickel to improve the consolidation of the hafnium diboride powder for sintering. Hafnium diboride is commonly formed into a solid through the process of hot pressing, where powders are pressed together using both heat and pressure. The oxidation resistance of hafnium diboride is dependent on the relative temperature and pressure.
Hafnium diboride has also been investigated as possible new material for nuclear reactor control rods. It is also being investigated as a microchip diffusion barrier. If synthesized correctly, the barrier can be less than 6nm thick. Hafnium diboride is a highly harmful metalloid in nature, and contact of with it may cause sudden unconsciousness. It is primarily used in effluent treatment in the electronic industry. Harmful effects of hafnium diboride are estimated to hamper the hafnium diboride market during the forecast period.
