Most of the borides are crystals with high hardness and melting point [1-4]. Stable chemical properties and a wide range of applications make it widely used in composite materials, semiconductors, and in various areas of national defense, such as radiation protection [5-8]. Among them, AlB12 has a special electronic structure and bonding characteristics [9,10]. It can effectively adjust the conductivity of semiconductor materials, and thus is extensively employed in conductors and semiconductor materials. In addition to the above characteristics, the content of boron in AlB12 is extremely high, reaching 82.8%, which is very promising as neutron shielding material [11-13].
