The paste segment to witness significant growth owing to lower costs and high productivity. Further, they can also be used for lapping and fine grinding of non-ferrous and thermoplastics materials. Further, the grains type segment will observe significant growth in the boron carbide market. The development is attributed to the increasing usage of grain-type boron carbide in grinding, polishing, and lapping applications across the Asia Pacific and Latin America, resulting in the penetration of boron carbide over the forecast period. The high productivity and boron-to-carbon ratio of grain-type boron carbide are the major factors expanding the boron carbide market growth during the forecast period.
North America holds around 25% share and can be largely credited to the huge ceramic armor sales & production in the U.S. It is used in personal armor and by armored vehicles to resist bullet penetration through its compressive strength & high hardness. Moreover, many ceramic armor producers are implementing boron carbide since it has extremely high hardness around 9.5 to 9.75 compared to alumina, silicon carbide, and titanium diboride.
