- Increased usage of bulletproof armor and vests in the defense sector is projected to fuel the expansion of the Boron Carbide Market
- Rise in usage of boron carbide plates in aerospace and defense industries in Asia Pacific is expected to drive the regional market
WILMINGTOM, Del., Dec. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Global Boron Carbide Market is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 4.9% during the forecast period of 2022 to 2031, notes a report by Transparency Market Research.
The latest armor systems use next-generation ceramics owing to their different advantages, including low weight and superior performance during ballistic-scale impacts. Ceramics are used in the production of personal armor and armored vehicles. Demand for ceramics manufactured using boron carbide is increasing owing to advantages, such as hardness, high melting point, improved thermal stability, low density, neutron absorption ability, and strong chemical resistance. Lightweightness of these products maximize the mobility of ballistic armor. On the other hand, their hardness offers outstanding protection. Boron carbide ceramics are used in armed helicopters and other aircraft as they support in improving the designs. Hence, increased usage of ceramics developed using boron carbide is leading to revenue-generation opportunities in the market.
Nature of the market is highly consolidated, with presence of a few prominent players. Companies in the Boron Carbide Market are focusing on R&D activities in order to expand their product portfolios. Furthermore, several players are using the strategies of partnership, merger & acquisition, and collaboration to maintain their prominent market positions.

Key Findings -
- Boron carbide abrasive powders offer high surface quality. They also provide high removal rates in wire sawing, lapping, and ultrasonic drilling operations. This is due to the extreme hardness of boron carbide as opposed to tungsten carbide, titanium carbide, or silicon carbide. Boron carbide is gaining impetus as an alternative to machining wear-resistant materials, including tungsten carbide and technical ceramics, such as zirconia, alumina, and silicon carbide. The abrasive grade segment is projected to expand at a CAGR of 5.2% and account for high share of the market during the forecast period.
- Demand for boron carbide is increasing in the nuclear industry owing to its varied advantages, including outstanding thermal stability and cost-effectiveness. Moreover, it offers low secondary ray energy, corrosion resistance, and no radioisotope production. Boron carbide can absorb neutrons released by the fission reaction of uranium. Demand for neutron-absorbing materials is also increasing in the nuclear industry. The need for reactor shielding materials and other shielding systems is likely to increase in the near future as investments in nuclear energy are growing. This factor is expected to boost the market growth during the forecast period.
