Boron (B)
- Description
Description
Boron is an extremely hard and heat-resistant semi-metal. It’s widely used in compounds to make everything from bleaches, tile glazes and glass to agricultural fertilizers.
High purity Boron is a critical material in semiconductors. It acts as a dopant and helps control the electrical properties. It can cause an insulator to become more electrically conductive. It is also used as source materials in molecular beam epitaxial applications in semiconductor researches and productions.
