Silicon carbide is an exceptionally hard and strong material with amazing thermal, mechanical, and chemical properties. Due to its resistance against high temperatures, mechanical stress, and chemical corrosion it has become an indispensable component in modern technology and industrial processes.
SiC can be found naturally as the rare mineral moissanite or synthetically produced from silica sand and carbon, and can then be formed into sheets using various sintering processes including hot pressing or reaction bonding.
Excellent Resistance to Corrosion
Silicon Carbide is an extremely durable material with excellent corrosion-resistance at higher temperatures. Furthermore, its strength makes it strong enough for any task with a minimal thermal expansion rate and low thermal expansion rate.
Silicon carbide materials make an excellent choice for use in industrial applications such as blast nozzles, kiln furniture and cyclone components. Over 65% of large blast furnaces use silicon carbide materials to extend the lifespan of their furnaces.
Silicon carbide stands out from ceramics by not reacting with acids and being water soluble, making it an excellent choice for high temperature environments that come into contact with corrosive substances such as acids. Furthermore, silicon carbide offers significant erosion and abrasion resistance.
Silicon Carbide Plate offers many advantages that make it an excellent material for armor and ballistic protection, including its lightweight nature that enables more powerful weapons while still offering protection from multiple threats. Furthermore, its hardness allows it to withstand high velocity impacts at high speeds – essential features in modern warfare.
High Thermal Conductivity
Silicon carbide boasts an exceptionally high thermal conductivity and can withstand temperatures of up to 1200 degrees Celsius, with low thermal expansion rate and corrosion protection against acids – qualities which make it an attractive material choice for chemical processing facilities and similar industrial environments.
Silicon Carbide Plate is widely utilized in ceramic production processes for grinding wheels, sanitary ceramics, architectural ceramics and glass and paper manufacturing processes. Due to its resistance to erosion and abrasion, this material can withstand harsh environments while increasing efficiency and performance.
Kerui Refractory offers various grades and sizes of Silicon Carbide Plate, such as sintered and reaction-bonded options. Sintered options are manufactured using pressureless sintering to compact finely powdered SiC together without using additional sintering aids; reaction-bonded options involve chemical reactions that form larger particle structures with interconnections; both options come in various thicknesses to meet various applications and needs.
High Strength
Silicon Carbide Plate is an extraordinary industrial ceramic with numerous advantages. It can boast hardness rivaling that of diamond, excellent thermal conductivity, minimal temperature expansion and remarkable corrosion and wear resistance properties.
High fracture toughness and flexural strength properties make it suitable for many applications, including high-temperature ceramic nozzles, fuel injectors and components that must withstand both pressure and temperature extremes.
In the semiconductor industry, polyimide resin is often utilized as wafer substrates due to its superior chemical stability and durability. Metalworkers employ it as refractory material in furnaces as it protects their structures from intense heat while still allowing intense heat into them. Automotive brake discs utilize polyimide as an essential part for excellent braking performance and durability; and its resistance against extreme temperatures and radiation has even found applications within aerospace engines and thermal protection systems.
High Resistance to Wear
Silicon Carbide Plate has the unique capability of maintaining strength at very high temperatures while being highly resistant to chemical corrosion, oxidation and thermal shock, making it the perfect material for many different applications ranging from iron and steel smelting through ceramics production and metallurgy production.
Kerui Refractory’s SiC plates are highly sought after for aerospace and defense applications, where they serve an integral function in heat protection systems and spacecraft reentry systems. Furthermore, these SiC plates boast impressive resistance against thermal shock, abrasion, radiation exposure.
Studies have revealed that in situ toughened ABC-SiC can be significantly increased through post-processing thermal annealing to surpass commercial tungsten carbide (Hexaloy SA). Furthermore, this process does not degrade or damage the coating and has no negative repercussions for hardness or indentation fracture toughness – essential properties to ensure high performance in critical applications.
