Description
Silicon Carbide (SiC) Micron Powder, Purity: 99.5+%, Size: 1–10 µm
Product Description:
Silicon Carbide (SiC) Micron Powder with a particle size distribution between 1–10 µm and a minimum purity of 99.5% is a high-performance ceramic material widely used in industrial, electronic, and structural applications. This fine-grade powder is engineered to provide superior mechanical strength, chemical stability, thermal conductivity, and wear resistance, making it suitable for demanding environments and high-precision components.
Due to its combination of lightweight, rigidity, and thermal shock resistance, Silicon Carbide is an ideal candidate for use in technical ceramics, polishing compounds, high-temperature components, and electronic packaging. The material’s chemical inertness ensures compatibility with corrosive or oxidative environments, while its non-toxic, non-radioactive nature enhances safety in application.
