Boron amorphous powder is a dark brown to black non-crystalline form of boron, known for its high reactivity and unique properties. It is produced through methods like chemical vapour deposition and is used in various applications such as electronics, pyrotechnics, metallurgy, the nuclear industry, energy storage, ceramics, and pharmaceuticals. With its high purity and variable particle sizes, it enhances the performance of semiconductors, fuels pyrotechnic mixtures, acts as a deoxidizer in metals, absorbs neutrons in reactors, and contributes to high-energy-density batteries. Handling requires caution due to its reactivity and potential health hazards.
