Ferro Boron Powder (FeB powder) Description
Ferro Boron Powder (FeB powder) is a strong deoxidizer and boron additive in steelmaking. The biggest role of boron in steel is that only a very small amount of boron can significantly improve the hardenability and replace a large number of alloying elements. In addition, it can also improve mechanical properties, cold deformation properties, welding properties, and high-temperature properties.
