Silicon carbide has four main application areas, namely: functional ceramics, advanced refractory materials, abrasives, and metallurgical raw materials. Silicon carbide coarse materials can already be supplied in large quantities and cannot be considered high-tech products, while the application of nanoscale silicon carbide powders with extremely high technological content cannot form economies of scale in the short term.
As an abrasive, it can be used to make grinding tools, such as grinding wheels, oilstones, grinding heads, sanding tiles, etc.
⑵ As a metallurgical deoxidizer and high-temperature resistant material.
High purity single crystals can be used to manufacture semiconductors and silicon carbide fibers.
Main application: Used for wire cutting of 3-12 inch monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, potassium arsenide, quartz crystals, etc. Engineering processing materials for solar photovoltaic industry, semiconductor industry, and piezoelectric crystal industry.
Used in fields such as semiconductors, lightning rods, circuit components, high-temperature applications, ultraviolet detectors, structural materials, astronomy, disc brakes, clutches, diesel particulate filters, filament pyrometers, ceramic films, cutting tools, heating elements, nuclear fuels, jewelry, steel, protective gear, catalyst supports, etc.
