The crystal type of magnesium diboride MgB2

Overview of magnesium diboride MgB2 powder

Magnesium diboride (MgB₂) is an ionic compound with a hexagonal crystal structure. It is an intercalation type compound with alternating layers of magnesium and boron.

Researchers discovered in 2001 that a seemingly inconspicuous compound magnesium diboride (magnesium diboride) turns into a superconductor at a temperature slightly close to the absolute temperature of 40K (ie -233°C). Its transition temperature is almost twice that of other superconductors of the same type, and its actual working temperature is 20~30K. To reach this temperature, liquid neon, liquid hydrogen or a closed-cycle refrigerator can be used to complete the cooling. These methods are simpler and cheaper than the industrial cooling of niobium alloys (4K) with liquid helium. Once doped with carbon or other impurities, magnesium boride can maintain superconductivity no less than that of niobium alloys, or even better, in the presence of a magnetic field or current passing through. Its potential applications include superconducting magnets, power transmission lines, and sensitive magnetic field detectors.

Application of Magnesium Diboride MgB2 Powder

Potential applications of magnesium diboride include superconducting magnets, power transmission lines, and sensitive magnetic field detectors.

Magnesium diboride is a new material that has attracted much attention. The research mainly focuses on the properties of synthesis and superconducting elements, which are used in industrial synthesis and sintering performance, room temperature conductivity, corrosion resistance of aluminum liquid, and corrosion resistance of fluoride. Therefore, MgB2 and its composite materials have Not used to cover the cathode area of aluminum electrolysis.

MgB2 is easier to sinter and densify than TiB2, and its electrical conductivity basically meets the requirements of aluminum electrolytic cathodes. Therefore, MgB2 and its composite materials can be widely used as cathode materials for aluminum electrolysis.

Propellants, explosives, pyrotechnics: Unlike the incomplete combustion of elemental boron through a glass oxide layer that prevents the diffusion of oxygen, magnesium diboride burns completely in oxygen or oxidant mixtures. Therefore, magnesium boride has been proposed as a fuel for ramjet engines. In addition, for the same reason, it has been suggested to use MgB2 in enhanced explosives and propellants.
