Type of Material:

Silicon Carbide - a bluish-black crystalline compound, SiC, one of the hardest known substances, used as an abrasive and heat-refractory material and in single crystals as semiconductors, especially in high-temperature applications.

Manufacturing technique:

  • Iso-static pressed
  • Vibro-casting
  • Slip casting

Application:

  • Very good thermal shock resistance
  • Very good thermal conductivity
  • Very good chemical resistance against fluxes
  • High hardness
  • Good corrosion resistance and stiffness
  • Very good wear resistance

Industries:

Ideal for the Mineral Processing and Industrial markets.
