Calcium boride is used as an electrode (cathode) material and n-type thermoelectric materials. It is used to make boron- alloyed steel, as a deoxidation agent in the production of oxygen-free copper. It is further used as an antioxidant in carbon bonded refractories. It acts as a new material which is used in the nuclear-industry for neutron- preventing, high-purity metal borid (TiB₂,ZrB₂,HfB₂) and high-purity boron alloy(Ni-B, Co-B, Cu-b).
