Silicon Carbide (SiC)

■ Overview

Fine ceramics that have excellent corrosion resistance and maintain strength even at high temperatures. Silicon carbide is a material that has excellent water resistance among fine ceramics and maintains its strength even at high temperatures. Silicon carbide has high hardness and very poor workability, making it a difficult-to-cut material among ceramics. There are various grades in terms of volume resistance, not insulators. Silicon carbide is a material that maintains its strength even at a high temperature of 1400 ° C and can be used even in harsh environments due to its high corrosion resistance.

 

■ Features
