What are the characteristics and uses of green silicon carbide?

Green silicon carbide is made from petroleum coke and silica as the main raw materials through high-temperature smelting.

The main use of green silicon carbide powder is as raw material for silicon carbide ceramics or other ceramics and refractory materials. The main use of green silicon carbide grinding powder is cutting or abrasive.

The future development of green silicon carbide will also play an important role as a superconducting material and high energy-carrying material in the field of materials science, aerospace and Internet technology.

Uses of silicon carbide

1.It is used for wear-resistant, fire-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, and can also be used to make rocket nozzles, gas turbine blades, etc. In addition, green silicon carbide is also one of the ideal materials for solar water heaters on highways, aviation runways, etc.

2.Functional ceramics use their thermal conductivity, thermal radiation, and high thermal intensity to manufacture thin-plate kiln furniture, which not only reduces the capacity of the kiln furniture, but also improves the kiln's loading capacity and product quality, shortens the production cycle, and is an ideal choice for ceramic glazed baking Ideal for roasting and sintering indirect materials.

3.Abrasive abrasives are mainly used for grinding and polishing grinding wheels, sandpaper, abrasive belts, whetstones, grinding blocks, grinding heads, abrasive pastes, and monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon in photovoltaic products, and piezoelectric crystals in the electronics industry.

In metallurgical mineral processing, the hardness of green silicon carbide is second only to diamond, and it has strong wear resistance. It is an ideal material for wear-resistant pipes, impeller pump chamber cyclones, and ore hopper linings; its wear resistance is the longest service life of cast iron and rubber. It is 5-20 times that of aluminum and is also one of the ideal materials for aviation runways.
