Silicon carbide (SiC) is a lightweight, high-performance ceramic material known for its exceptional strength, rivaling that of diamond. It exhibits outstanding thermal conductivity, minimal thermal expansion, and remarkable resistance to thermal shock, oxidation, and corrosion. These properties make SiC an ideal choice for applications that demand high erosion and abrasive resistance.
Silicon carbide plates are utilized across various industries due to their superior properties, including:
