Abstract:

This study examines the formation of Boron carbide with a wide homogeneity range B8C18 and B25C, from boric acid-glucose and boric acid-active carbon as precursor materials. The samples was analysed by means of X-ray diffraction and Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer. X-ray diffraction pattern was analysed by GSAS software. X ray diffraction pattern of B8C18 shows peaks at 27o, 39o, 45o, 65o and 79o, orthorhombic crystal system and lattice parameters a = 13.640 Ǻ, b = 7.8500 Ǻ and c = 12.910 Ǻ and space group P21 21 21, whereas for B25C sample show peaks at 2θ angle 28o and 40o, tetragonal crystal system, and the lattice parameters a = b = 8.753 Ǻ and c = 5.093 Ǻ and space group P-4 2 m. FTIR results show that for B8C18 have absorption bands with B-C bond at 1196.5 cm-1, 0-H 3216.7 cm-1 and B-O at 1477.1 cm-1, whereas the formation B25C have absorption bands with B-C bond at 1195.1 cm-1, O-H 3216.7 cm-1 and B-O 1460.8 cm-1.
