Abstract
A production method of boron carbide nano-sized particles and/or submicron particles includes the following sequential steps: obtention of a fluid mixture including elemental boron, glycerin and one or more carboxylic acid, wherein a molar ratio of glycerin to the one or more carboxylic acids is within a range between 10:1 and 10:7.5. Heating of the fluid mixture to obtain a first mid-product in a form of a gel including borate ester bonds. Solidification of the first mid-product by heating a reaction product to obtain a second mid-product in solid form. Sintering the second mid-product to obtain boron carbide in a form of particles.
