Studying Mechanocomposites of Boron Nitride with Tungsten and Molybdenum as Materials for Electron-Beam and Laser Additive Technologies

Abstract

The proportion of products manufactured by additive methods is constantly growing in modern technology. The use of radiation technologies makes it possible to obtain materials that combine the best characteristics of metals, oxides, carbides, borides, and so on. It attracts the interest of developers of new technology. Tungsten boride is a promising material for enhancing the protective properties of containers in which radioactive materials are stored. The possibility of synthesizing borides by electron beam processing is studied.
