Silicon Carbide Powder

Silicon Carbide Powder Description

Silicon Carbide Powder has a hexagonal crystal structure and is typically available in two main types: black silicon carbide and green silicon carbide. Both belong to α-SiC. Black silicon carbide contains about 98.5% SiC and has higher toughness than green silicon carbide, which is primarily used for processing materials with lower tensile strength. Green silicon carbide contains more than 99% SiC and has excellent self-shaping properties, mainly used for processing hard alloys, titanium alloys, and optical glass. Advanced Ceramics Hub can supply high-quality silicon carbide powder with various purities and particle sizes for diverse industry and research applications.

Silicon Carbide Powder Applications

• Abrasives & Polishing: For sandpaper, grinding wheels, and polishing compounds to process metals, glass, and ceramics.
• Refractories: As an additive in high-temperature kilns and steelmaking furnaces to enhance heat/corrosion resistance.
• Ceramic Reinforcement: Mixed with structural ceramics (e.g., Al₂O₃, ZrO₂) to improve toughness, wear resistance, and thermal conductivity.
• Semiconductors & Electronics: High-purity SiC powder for wafer substrates, power devices, and RF components.
• Coatings: Applied via thermal spray or PVD to protect tools and aerospace components from wear.
• Composites: Combined with metals/polymers for brake pads, armor plates, and high-performance parts.
• 3D Printing: As a high-strength, heat-resistant material for additive manufacturing.
• Solar Energy: Used in polysilicon ingot furnace linings and coatings.

Silicon Carbide Powder Packaging

The Silicon Carbide Powder is carefully placed in wooden cases or cartons with additional support from soft materials to prevent any shifting during transportation. This packaging method guarantees the integrity of the products throughout the delivery process.
