Cerium Boride (CeB6) Powder Properties
- Insoluble in water.
- Stable in a vacuum.
- Extremely high electron emissivity due to its lower work function.
- Higher resistance to carbon pollution and longer life span than lanthanum boride cathodes.
Cerium Boride (CeB6) Powder Applications
- Used in electron microscopes, microwave tubes, and electronics.
- Used in the fields of beam etching, electron beam welding, the X-ray tube, and free-electron laser.
Cerium Boride (CeB6) Powder Storage and Packing
Cerium Boride (CeB6) Powder should keep sealed and stored in a dry and cool place, avoiding being exposed to air for a long time. The vacuum-sealed pacing is 100g/bag, 500g/bag, 1kg/bag, 25kg/drum, or as required.
