Silicon carbide ceramic is an inorganic non-metallic material made of silicon carbide (SiC) as the main raw material and sintered at high temperature. Silicon carbide ceramics have a variety of excellent properties, such as high hardness, high strength, high temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, low thermal expansion coefficient and good thermal conductivity and electrical properties. These properties make silicon carbide ceramics widely used in many fields.
Some silicon carbide ceramic components produced by Mingrui Ceramics.
Properties of silicon carbide ceramics:
1. Hardness and strength: Silicon carbide ceramics have extremely high hardness and strength. Its hardness is second only to diamond, and its strength is also very high, more than 5 times that of steel. This makes silicon carbide ceramic an ideal wear-resistant material.
2. High temperature resistance: Silicon carbide ceramics have good high temperature stability and can work stably for a long time at high temperatures up to 2700°C. Its high temperature strength and creep resistance are the best among ceramic materials.
3. Thermal conductivity: Silicon carbide ceramic has a very high thermal conductivity, which is 3-4 times that of copper. It can effectively dissipate heat and is a high-quality refractory material.
4. Corrosion resistance: Silicon carbide ceramics have excellent corrosion resistance and can work stably in various chemical media such as acids, alkalis, and salts.
5. Electrical properties: Silicon carbide ceramics also have excellent electrical properties and can be used to manufacture electronic devices and optical devices.
