Silicon nitride-bonded silicon carbide (NBSC) is well-known for its excellent wear resistance and oxidation resistance, high thermal conductivity, and thermal shock resistance, even at high temperatures. Nitride-bonded silicon carbide materials also possesses ideal refractory and chemical properties. NBSC resists wetting by non-ferrous metals. It is a semiconductor at high temperatures.
