Rigid three-dimensional networks of hafnium diboride for improving mechanical and wear properties of boron carbide

Being one of the hardest materials known in nature, boron carbide (B4C) suffers from severe degradation of mechanical properties when subjected to external pressure or shear stress, which hinders its application in metal forming and machining industries. Herein, based on the phase diagrams, a new st...
