Boron has been, and still is, used in bleaches, fiberglass, structural and refractory materials, glass and ceramics, and organic reagents.
The main use of boron compounds is in the form of sodium tetraborate pentahydrate (Na2B4O7) for making insulating fiberglass and sodium perborate bleach. Wikipedia says its an excellent insulator so am afraid it cant conduct heat :)
Boron is use in doping semiconductors, modifying their electrical properties. Boron oxide (B2O3) is used in glassmaking and ceramics. Borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) is used in making fiberglass, as a cleansing fluid, a water softener, insecticide, herbicide and disinfectant. Boric acid (H3BO3) is used as a mild antiseptic and as a flame retardant. Boron Nitride's hardness is second only to diamond, but it has better thermal and chemical stability, hence boron nitride ceramics are used in high-temperature equipment. Boron nitride nanotubes can have a similar structure to carbon nanotubes. BN nanotubes are more thermally and chemically stable than carbon nanotubes and, unlike carbon nanotubes, boron nitride nanotubes are electrical insulators. Boron carbide (B4C) is used in tank armor and bullet proof vests.

Much boron is made into sodium tetraborate which is used to insulate fiberglass. It is also used in many cleaning products- detergents and bleaches.Most boron is used to produce glass and ceramics. Borosilicate glass has a fantastic resistance to thermal shock (sudden changes in temperature which causes glass to break).Boron filaments are used as light but high-strength materials for aerospace structures. They are also used to produce some golf clubs and fishing rods.

boron was named boron because of the properties it has
The answer is Boron :)
