Aluminum magnesium borate, also known as Al3Mg3B56 or BAM in colloquial terms, is a combination of aluminum magnesium and boron. Its molecular formula nominal is AlMgB14. However, its chemical composition is closer Al0.75Mg0.75B14. This ceramic alloy is known for its high wear resistance, low coefficients of sliding friction (recorded at 0.04 under unlubricated conditions, and 0.02 with lubricated AlMgB14/TiB2 composites). BAM’s orthogonal structure, which consists of four icosahedral B12 unit cells per cell, was first described in 1970. It is common to use a superhard material that has a similar thermal expansion coefficient as other materials such as concrete or steel. Performances in everyday applications of aluminum-magnesium boreide product
Aluminum cabinet ceramic has many benefits, including being resistant to high temperatures, oil, water and impact. It is also durable, affordable, easy-to-clean, and offers a long lifespan.
Environmental protection is the first priority. Even if the cabinet plate is environmentally-friendly, it will still use glue because the entire sheet is based upon particleboard and MDF. There will be formaldehyde in the cabinet panels even if they meet environmental standards.
2. Good performance: not only durable, environmental friendly, and meets waterproof, fireproof, and pest control three requirements. Other functions include resistance to acid, cleaning, good oil resistant, scratch, and more. Cabinets that are not replaceable.
3. Durable. Rugged. Yes, wooden cabinets have a life span of 10 years or less. Ceramic cabinets are at least as old as the house itself, and even more. The main framework of the cabinet has been made out of ceramic tiles, aluminum and is therefore more robust.
The frame of the entire cabinet is made from durable wood.
BAM, the most slippery material on earth
Aluminum magnesium Boride is a material with a unique composition. This gives it a distinct advantage. The material has an extremely low coefficients of friction and excellent hardness.
“Its toughness was discovered accidentally.” Alan Russell, an materials scientist from Ames Iowa State University said, “We had a bad time when we tried to cut, grind or polish it.”
The friction coefficient is less than half that of Teflon. Teflon is known to have a friction coefficient 0.05 while BAM keeps a 0.02! For a reference, steel has a frictional coefficient of 0.16.
This new material, which is available in a thin coating that can be used on a variety of surfaces, offers the same benefits for energy efficiency and longevity as BAM. BAM can be estimated to save US industries 330 trillion kilojoules (or 9 billion kilowatt hours) every year by 2030. That’s equivalent to 179 million dollars in annual savings.
Currently, the mechanical properties of this material are being investigated because it’s not clear why it maintains such dexterity. A material normally only displays characteristics like hardness and low friction. Both phenomena are new and highly prevalent in the material.
BAM is a solution to the worst nightmare for every engineer: friction. Friction reduces the performance of a machine, uses a lot of power, and increases the complexity of its design. BAM is able to relieve the most stress, by providing a material that is incredibly hard, and allows for the machine’s length to be increased.
