Of note, Specialty Materials also makes Boron Nanopowder which according to them show promise for superconductive wire and then-on superconducting magnets.
"Specialty Materials, Inc. has recently developed a very high purity boron nanopowder via RF plasma synthesis. We view the principal market for this to be magnesium diboride (MgB2) superconducting wire, which is then used to make superconducting magnets. The ultimate end users are varied, with the most pressing application being magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) units for hospitals. MgB2 based superconducting magnets allows for better, cheaper, and more compact MRI units in a time of increasingly high medical costs."
