Abstract

Boron carbide (B4C) is generally produced by the traditional carbothermic reduction method. However, low-cost methods have emerged as alternatives to the current carbothermic reduction method, where the leading approach is synthesis using polymeric precursors. The synthesis of B4C using polymeric precursors can be carried out at lower temperatures (
