Silicon carbide ceramics (SiC ceramics) are materials with various excellent properties and are used in industrial fields. The applications are very wide. Let's take a look at the specific performance advantages of silicon carbide ceramics.
High hardness: Silicon carbide ceramics have the second highest hardness after diamond and boron nitride, and have excellent wear resistance and scratch resistance.
High heat resistance: Silicon carbide ceramics have excellent high temperature resistance and can be used in environments up to 1600°C without thermal expansion. The high temperature strength can be maintained up to 1600°C, which makes them the highest high temperature strength among known ceramic materials.
Corrosion resistance: Silicon carbide ceramics have excellent corrosion resistance and can resist chemical corrosion such as strong acids and strong alkalis.
Wear resistance: Silicon carbide ceramics have excellent wear resistance and are suitable for severe wear.
Other features: Silicon carbide ceramics also have the advantages of high strength, high rigidity, low thermal conductivity, low coefficient of thermal expansion, non-toxic, and odorless.
Mechanical properties: Silicon carbide ceramics also have excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures, such as high bending strength, high creep resistance, and low coefficient of friction.
Electrical properties: The electrical properties of silicon carbide ceramics can be changed from insulators to conductors through doping.
Low density: Silicon carbide ceramics have a lower density than metals, which results in lighter devices.
Thermal properties: Silicon carbide ceramics have a low coefficient of thermal expansion and low thermal conductivity, which provides excellent thermal shock resistance in high-temperature environments.
In summary, silicon carbide ceramics are multi-functional advanced ceramic materials with high practical value and wide application range. In 2024, Minrui Ceramics will increase its investment in silicon carbide ceramic processing equipment to meet the needs of customers and friends.
