Nickel boride, a chemical compound of inorganic nature, is represented by the formula NixBy, with x and y being variable. A frequently encountered composition is Ni2B, which is found in two variants known as P-1 and P-2. There are also other nickel borides that are not as common, including NiB, Ni3B, o-Ni4B3, and m-Ni4B3, where “o” indicates an orthorhombic structure and “m” denotes a metastable form.

Nickel boride powder stands out as a high‑performance boride compound, offering a rare combination of hardness, catalytic activity, and chemical stability. When produced at high purity and with controlled particle size, Ni₂B is engineered to excel in demanding material environments—making it suitable for advanced coatings, composite reinforcement, and catalytic systems.
From a mechanical perspective, Ni₂B exhibits elevated hardness and excellent thermal tolerance, which helps it maintain structural integrity under elevated temperatures and cyclic load. These features make it a reliable additive or coating material for wear‑resistant parts, hard facing applications, and refractory composites where conventional materials begin to degrade.
Catalytically, nickel boride has gained recognition as an efficient, non‑precious‑metal alternative in hydrogenation, desulfurization, and dehalogenation reactions. Its boron‑modified nickel structure enhances catalytic selectivity and activity, allowing it to serve as a key component in advanced chemical processes and energy‑materials systems.
In addition, Ni₂B delivers significant chemical resilience. It is stable in dry air, resistant to many corrosive environments, and compatible with vacuum or inert‑gas processing. This intrinsic durability supports its use in thin‑film deposition, structural alloy reinforcement, and other high‑technology applications where long‑term stability and reproducibility are critical.
Nickel boride serves as an effective catalyst and reducing agent, being employed as a catalyst for hydrogenation across multiple phases.
