FeB
Ferro Boron is quite widely used in a variety of applications, although the predominant ones are hot spray painting and in the production of amorphous metals. There have been wide ranging experiments using Ferro Boron to produce prototype steel compounds, many of which were entirely successful, although not suitable for general manufacturing as other forms of steel are cheaper to produce. One of the more advanced uses of Ferro Boron is in the production of magnetic glass, where it will be added to the silicon compound, along with a small quantity of iron, during the initial production process.
