Application Scope of Silicon Carbide

Silicon carbide has four main application areas, namely functional ceramics, advanced refractory materials, abrasives, and metallurgical raw materials. The coarse silicon carbide material can already be supplied in large quantities and cannot be considered a high-tech product, while the application of nanoscale silicon carbide powder with extremely high technological content cannot form economies of scale in a short period of time.

As an abrasive, it can be used to make grinding tools, such as grinding wheels, oilstones, grinding heads, sand tiles, etc.
As a metallurgical deoxidizer and high-temperature resistant material.
High purity single crystals can be used to manufacture semiconductors and silicon carbide fibers.
Main use: Used for wire cutting of 3-12 inch monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, potassium arsenide, quartz crystals, etc. Engineering processing materials for the solar photovoltaic industry, semiconductor industry, and piezoelectric crystal industry.
It is used in semiconductor, lightning rod, circuit components, high temperature applications, ultraviolet detectors, structural materials, astronomy, disc brake, clutch, diesel particulate filter, filament pyrometer, ceramic film, cutting tools, heating elements, nuclear fuel, jewelry, steel, protective gear, catalyst support and other fields.
