Iron Boron (FeB) Alloy

Iron boride refers to various inorganic compounds with the formula FexBy. Two main iron borides are FeB and Fe2B. Some iron borides possess useful properties such as magnetism, electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance and extreme hardness. Some iron borides have found use as hardening coatings for iron. Iron borides have properties of ceramics such as high hardness, and properties of metal properties, such as thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity. Boride coatings on iron are superior mechanical, frictional, and anti-corrosive. Iron monoboride (FeB) is a grey powder that is insoluble in water. FeB is harder than Fe2B, but is more brittle and more easily fractured upon impact.
Iron borides can be formed by thermochemically reacting boron rich compounds on an iron surface to form a mixture of iron borides, in a process known as boriding. There are a number of ways of forming boride coatings, including gas boriding, molten salt boriding, and pack boriding. Typically carbon tetraboride (B4C) or crystalline boron, is sintered on the iron surface in a tetrafluoroborate flux to form the coatings. The boron atoms diffuse into the iron substrate between 1023 and 1373 K. They first form layers of Fe2B and then form layers of FeB.The range of compounds and compositions formed depends on the reaction conditions including temperature and surrounding environment.
The structures of FeB and Fe2B were known to be interstitial in early studies. FeB has orthorhombic crystal structure.Fe2B adopts body central tetragonal structure. Boriding is often used to improve abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and oxidation resistance. It is used in oil and gas refinery, chemical extraction, automotive, agricultural, stamping, textile extrusion and injection molding industries.

Iron based coatings recently gained attention for their mechanical, frictional, and corrosion resistant properties. As compared to the ceramic or cermet type of materials people have used before, iron based materials are relatively inexpensive, less strategic, and can be produced economically by various thermal methods with ease of fabrication and machining.
