Making Some of the Worldโ€s Most Durable Materials Corrosion-Resistant

Borides are among the hardest and most heat-resistant substances on the planet, but their Achillesโ€™ Heel, like so many materialsโ€™, is that they oxidize at high temperatures. Oxidation is the chemical reaction commonly known as corrosion or rusting โ€” it can signal the end for a materialโ€™s structural integrity. But researchers from Drexel University, Linkoping
