Boron carbide powder was fabricated by combustion synthesis (CS) method directly from mixed powders of borax (Na2B4O7), magnesium (Mg) and carbon. The adiabatic temperature of the combustion reaction of Na2B4O7 + 6 Mg + C was calculated. The control of the reactions was achieved by selecting reactant composition, relative density of powder compact and gas pressure in CS reactor. The effects of these different influential factors on the composition and morphologies of combustion products were investigated. The results show that, it is advantageous for more Mg/Na2B4O7 than stoichiometric ratio in Na2B4O7 + Mg + C system and high atmosphere pressure in the CS reactor to increase the conversion degree of reactants to end product. The final product with the minimal impurities’ content could be fabricated at appropriate relative density of powder compact. At last, boron carbide without impurities could be obtained after the acid enrichment and distilled water washing.
