TITANIUM DIBORIDE

Bhukhanvala Industries’ TiB2-B4C Composite Neutron Shielding Rods are critical components in nuclear reactors and other facilities handling radioactive materials. Their role is to absorb neutrons, preventing them from interacting with the surrounding environment. While materials like boron carbide (B4C) have excellent neutron absorption properties, materials like TiB2-B4C composites have additional advantages.

Enhanced Neutron Shielding: The high neutron absorption of B4C is complemented by the moderate absorption of TiB2, leading to a potentially stronger overall shielding effect.
Improved Mechanical Strength: The robust structure of TiB2 can help mitigate the brittleness of B4C, creating a more durable composite rod.
Thermal Management: The good thermal conductivity of TiB4 can aid in heat dissipation generated by neutron absorption within the B4C.
